The message was first sent when the Republican presidential nominee hosted the Israeli premier at his Florida Mar-a-Lago resort in July, according to a former Trump administration official and an Israeli official. (2/8)

timesofisrael.com/trump-i-told-n…
The former US official stressed that Trump wasn't specific in his appeal to Netanyahu and could well back "residual" IDF activity in Gaza, so long as Jerusalem has officially ended the war. (4/8)
Netanyahu has long stressed that Israel will maintain overall security control of Gaza for the foreseeable future after the war & other Israeli officials have spoken about maintaining buffer zone & having IDF regularly re-enter Strip when it detects Hamas trying to regroup. (5/8)
The prime minister indicated on Monday that Israel is not yet at that stage, telling Likud MKs in a quickly leaked recording from a faction meeting that he cannot agree to Hamas's demand to end the war in exchange for the hostages. (6/8) timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry…
The ex-US official clarified that the pre-inauguration that Trump wants Israel to secure in Gaza also includes hostages' release

Trump at RNC warned those holding US hostages will "pay very big price" if they arent returned before he assumes office. (7/8) timesofisrael.com/trump-warns-th…
Earlier this month, two senior Israeli officials told @TimesofIsrael they're concerned about Trump's repeated calls for Israel to end Gaza war quickly, fearing inability to do so will lead to a clash if the ex-president returns to office in January. (8/8) timesofisrael.com/if-trump-wins-…

🧵Qatari & Egyptian mediators have warned the US that Israel’s killing of Yahya Sinwar complicates efforts to broker a ceasefire and hostage release deal b/n Israel and Hamas, two US officials and one Arab diplomat told @TimesofIsrael (1/10)
timesofisrael.com/in-warning-qat…
The Biden administration has sought to frame the IDF’s October 16 killing of Sinwar as an opportunity for a breakthrough in the hostage negotiations, arguing that the Hamas leader was the main obstacle to a deal. (2/10)
But Qatar and Egypt argued that Sinwar’s death creates a leadership vacuum in Hamas that the terror group will have a hard time filling, the three officials said, noting that the Arab mediators’ concerns were passed along to Blinken during his visit to region last week. (3/10)

🧵Two senior Israeli officials have expressed concern to @TimesofIsrael over Trump’s repeated call for Israel to quickly end its war against Hamas in Gaza, fearing an inability to do so will lead to a clash if the former president returns to office (1/9) timesofisrael.com/if-trump-wins-…
“There are internal political constraints to ending the war quickly,” one of the Israeli officials from the security establishment said on Sunday.

While declining to elaborate, he appeared to refer to the makeup of Netanyahu’s coalition. (2/9)
There's near-unanimity w/in Bibi's gov against allowing the PA to play role in Gaza governance. 2nd Israeli official said this has allowed war to drag on, as Israel struggles to find viable alternative to fill power vacuum in Gaza, thereby allowing Hamas to regain footing (3/9)

But hours later, IDF announced raids aimed at dismantling Hezbollah posts along Lebanese border

🧵New: US officials have been deliberating steps that the administration could take during the lame-duck period to curb the effort by Netanyahu’s gov to expand Israel’s footprint in West Bank, a current & an ex-senior US official told @TimesofIsrael (1/29) timesofisrael.com/us-officials-w…
The nearly three-month period from the November 5 presidential election to the January 20 inauguration will come with additional “political flexibility,” which will allow space for more confrontational policies vis-a-vis the Israeli government, said the current US official (2/29)
The list of steps Biden could take would be longer if Harris wins the election since she is less likely to reverse them, ex-senior US official explained, addinf that VP would also be shielded from any political backlash due to being seen as part of her predecessor’s legacy (3/29)

Ceasefire proposal US submitted last week to try & bridge gaps b/n Israel & Hamas went too far to accommodate Netanyahu’s positions re IDF presence in Rafah & Netzarim Corridors, two Arab officials from mediating country & 3rd official involved in talks tells @TimesofIsrael (1/7)
Accordingly, talks at an impasse & an Arab official laments that there’s no point in holding another planned high-level gathering of negotiators later this week in Cairo, unless US pressures Netanyahu to come down from new demands & amends bridging proposal accordingly (2/7)
A second Arab official expresses his bewilderment at Blinken’s repeated public insistence in recent days that Netanyahu backs the US bridging proposal, arguing that this inaccurately frames Hamas as the lone obstructionist party. (3/7)

A ceasefire and hostage-release agreement between Israel and Hamas won't be possible unless US President Joe Biden exerts more pressure on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, two Arab officials from mediating countries @TimesofIsrael. (1/11)
timesofisrael.com/hostage-deal-w…
The officials charged that Netanyahu is the main obstacle to an agreement at this stage of the talks, which hit an impasse last month after Hamas caved on its main demand and the premier responded by issuing a series of new conditions. (2/11)
The admission from the Arab officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, indicated that frustration among Qatari and Egyptian mediators has extended beyond Israel to the United States. (3/11)
