💨 Abstract

As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu prepares for his third visit to the White House this year, U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed his desire for a ceasefire in Gaza. Netanyahu faces a critical decision between pursuing a diplomatic agreement or intensifying military strikes in Gaza, with priorities split between freeing hostages and defeating Hamas. Internal disagreements within Israel's government complicate the decision, as some urge for a stronger military offensive while others prioritize hostage release.
