Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu reiterates the commitment to “redraw” the Middle East when he arrived in the United States for talks with Trump.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in the United States, where he will be the first world leader to meet President Donald Trump in his second term.
Netanyahu thinks that working in close collaboration with the American president will help him change the face of the Middle East more after the break in the fights in Gaza.
But weeks after accepting the ceasefire with Hamas, Israel has increased attacks on refugee camps in occupied West Bank.
The Israeli army claims that the operation was launched to “prevent the construction of a terrorist infrastructure”.
Experts warn that military raids aim to annex a more Palestinian territory.
Does Trump’s return to the White House encourage Netanyahu to advance his dream of “great Israel”?
And what does all this mean for the future of Palestinians living in the West Bank?
