We are hopeful, and I would even be able to say with confidence that within the next few days we will be able to announce some kind of breakthrough, says Witkoff on Wednesday.

According to Steve Witkoff, President Donald Trump is said to have presented a plan for countries in the region, which "takes into account" both Israel and neighboring countries.

We presented what we call Trump's 21-point plan for peace in the Middle East and Gaza.

During the ongoing UN General Assembly in New York, Trump is also said to have promised leaders from several Arab countries that the US will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank, according to six different sources to the news site Politico.

The meeting was also attended by Turkey and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan called it "fruitful" without elaborating further.

The West Bank is governed by the Palestinian Authority, while the Gaza Strip is governed by the terrorist-listed Hamas.
