Lapid: Israel Must Join Trump’s Talks to End the War and Free the Hostages

In press remarks, Lapid stressed that Israel “must immediately announce its participation in the discussions led by Trump to finalize the details of the deal,” warning that any delay risks losing this historic opportunity.

Lapid revealed that he had informed the U.S. administration that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “enjoys broad political support to move forward with the deal,” adding that the national priority is to end the suffering of Israeli families and secure the swift return of the hostages.

His remarks come as U.S.-led negotiations, with the participation of regional parties, continue in an effort to reach an agreement that would halt the fighting in Gaza, enable a prisoner exchange, and establish new security arrangements. –Agencies
