High-stakes: Netanyahu departs to US for meeting with Trump

• ‘Israeli’ Prime Minister Netanyahu departed for Florida Sunday morning for a high-stakes summit at Mar-a-Lago, with meetings scheduled Monday with President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio to discuss the next phases of the Gaza ceasefire and regional security.
• The meeting centers on urgent ‘Israeli’ concerns regarding Iran's rapid reconstitution of its ballistic missile program, with Netanyahu expected to present Trump with options for future military strikes to prevent Tehran from amassing an arsenal that could overwhelm regional defenses.

‘Israeli’ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has taken off at 7:30 AM on Sunday for a highly-anticipated meeting with US President Donald Trump at the Mar-a-Lago in Florida.

He will land in Florida at 2 PM Local time, according to his agenda seen by Hebrew media.

On Monday, he will first meet with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio then US President Donald Trump about two hours later.

On Wednesday, his office says he will meet Evangelical leaders at his hotel and then he will attend an event with lawmakers and Jewish figures.

He is scheduled to depart the US on Thursday afternoon.

According to US media reports, Netanyahu is expected to brief Trump on possible strike options to carry out against Iran, as reports in Hebrew media said the ‘Israeli’ security establishment is becoming increasingly worried about Iran recovering its ballistic missile arsenal, as the Islamic Republic has reportedly ramped up production at its arms factories.

Talks on implementing the second phase of the Gaza ceasefire agreement will be at the forefront as well, as reports said the White House has become increasingly frustrated with Netanyahu for obstructing the second phase of the agreement.
