Israel-Hamas war: Jake Sullivan to meet with Benjamin Netanyahu amid US-Israel rift

The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Wednesday that U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan will meet top Israeli officials on Thursday amid an apparent rift between the two countries.

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will, tomorrow [...] at the Kirya in Tel Aviv, meet with US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, who is arriving in Israel tomorrow as the guest of National Security Council Director and National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi," the statement read.

"US National Security Adviser Sullivan will also meet with President Isaac Herzog, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, Minister Benny Gantz and the members of the War Cabinet," the press release added.

Sullivan's visit comes after the U.S. and Israel appeared to divide on plans for the post-war governance of Gaza this week.
