At the top of the agenda was the state of negotiations with Iran and the announced second phase of the U.S.-brokered plan for the future of the Gaza Strip.
Netanyahu emphasized at the meeting that “Iran has proven time and again that its promises cannot be trusted,” according to a statement from the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office.
He was also reported to have said that Israel will not allow the Palestinian Authority, which currently governs the occupied West Bank, to be part of the government in Gaza.
According to U.S. media reports, Witkoff, selected by U.S. President Donald Trump to negotiate in several of the world's most difficult crises, is set to meet with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Turkey on Friday.
The talks have not been officially confirmed, but White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News on Tuesday that the schedule is being negotiated.
The president, of course, always has different options on the table, including the use of military force, she further said.
Israeli army chief Eyal Zamir was visiting the United States this weekend for meetings, amid reports that President Trump has strengthened U.S. military forces around Iran.
