Note: This episode of Israel Policy Pod is an audio recording of a webinar Israel Policy Forum hosted today (9/30) on Zoom.

Amid mounting international pressure on Israel and growing determination from the Trump administration to end the war in Gaza, a hostage-ceasefire deal appears to be within reach. As the impact of yesterday's White House visit by Prime Minister Netanyahu comes into focus, Chief Policy Officer Michael Koplow and Washington Managing Director and Senior Policy Analyst Rachel Brandenburg join Policy Advisor and Israel Policy Pod host Neri Zilber to shed light on Trump’s plan to end the Gaza war, Netanyahu’s current political calculus, the role of various regional players, and what to expect in Gaza in the coming weeks.
