- The talks are set to center on advancing the next stage of the October Gaza ceasefire and on Israeli intelligence alleging Iran is rebuilding its ballistic missile capabilities.
- Israeli media report Netanyahu plans to present evidence on Iran’s missile program and to seek a U.S. green light for potential military options.
- Netanyahu intends to state that Israel will not move to Phase B in Gaza until Hamas disarms and the remains of the final Israeli hostage, Ran Gvili, are returned.
