The visit comes as the United States pressures Israel and Hamas to continue a ceasefire that has paused a devastating 15-month war in Gaza

The call was Rubio's first with Israel since the administration of Republican President Donald Trump took office on Monday.

Hamas blamed the delay on 'technical field reasons.' It said that it is committed to the ceasefire deal announced last week. The planned ceasefire, agreed after a year of intensive mediation by the United States, Qatar and Egypt, is the first step in a long and fragile process aimed at winding down the 15-month war

The Prime Minister cautioned Hamas to follow the rules of the deal.

The announcement of deal to return Hamas-held hostages in the Gaza Strip has been reached came a day after Netanyahu's office said there were last-minute snags in talks to free hostages in return for a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of Palestinian prisoners

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said there were still several unresolved clauses, which he hoped would be finalised on Wednesday evening.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday Israeli forces will stay in a buffer zone on the Syrian border, and specifically on the summit of Mount Hermon, “until another arrangement is found that will ensure Israel's security.”

The Israeli PM's speech was released after an Israeli official told CNN the security cabinet had approved a ceasefire deal. Netanyahu also said the duration of a ceasefire would 'depend on what happens in Lebanon.'

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre described the talk as "direct" and "productive," stating that the two leaders discussed Israel's response to last week's Iranian attack, though no specific details were provided.

In a recorded video address on Saturday, Netanyahu criticized Macron and other Western leaders for "calling for arms embargoes against Israel." He asserted that Israel "will win with or without their support," adding, "But their shame will persist long after the war is won."

Hours after the Iranian strike, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated during a Security Cabinet meeting, "Iran made a big mistake tonight, and it will pay for it."

Iran rejected a call Tuesday by three European countries urging it to refrain from any retaliatory attacks that would further escalate regional tensions. Iran calls it an “excessive request.”
