Israeli news outlet Ynet reported that the Israeli Security Minister, Benny Gantz, will travel to Washington for a series of meetings, undertaken independently of Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coordination. This visit arrives at a critical time, coinciding with ongoing negotiations for a prisoner-captive exchange and amid mounting indications from the United States of waning patience toward Netanyahu's behavior in the war. 

Netanyahu's office expressed frustration over the Ynet report and emphasized that Gantz's travel lacks the occupation Prime Minister's approval, going against the occupation government's regulations that state every minister must coordinate their trips in advance with the occupation Prime Minister, including obtaining approval for the travel plan.

'Biden calls for 'peace' between 'Israel' and Palestinians'

Earlier this week, President Joe Biden stressed the importance of "Israel" pursuing "peace" with the Palestinians for its long-term survival. He cautioned that the occupation's "incredibly conservative government" was at risk of losing international support during an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers.

“Israel has had the overwhelming support of the vast majority of nations. If it keeps this up with this incredibly conservative government they have, and (National Security Minister Itamar) Ben-Gvir and others, they’re going to lose support from around the world, and that is not in Israel’s interest,” he said in the Myers interview.

Earlier last month, Israeli Police Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, threw shade at Biden and Netanyahu, informing Dov Leiber of The Wall Street Journal that “if Trump [were] in power, the US conduct would be completely different.”
