Since the US weekend attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, Israeli Prime Minister and US President Donald Trump reportedly began planning for an expansion of the Abraham Accords and a two-state solution, provided that the Palestinian Authority enacts reforms, according to Israel Hayom.
Two sources reported that as Israel and the United States were “euphoric” over the success of the campaign using B-2 bombers to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities, Trump, Netanyahu, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Israeli Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer participated in a four-way phone call to celebrate the achievement of military goals and discuss postwar plans for the Middle East.
A new deal is emerging:
* A ceasefire in Gaza in two weeks.
* Arab countries will run Gaza (Egypt, UAE) and two others.
* Normalization with Saudi Arabia and Syria.
* The US will partially recognize Israeli sovereignty in the West Bank.
* Israel will express willingness to… https://t.co/wDhFiBJUBv— Shaiel Ben-Ephraim (@academic_la) June 26, 2025
The Israel Hayom report, based on the account of a source familiar with the matter, detailed the consensus reportedly reached by Netanyahu and Trump, which includes an end to the war in Gaza; the territory would be ruled by a coalition of Arab countries, including the United Arab Emirates and Egypt; the exile of Hamas from the Gaza Strip; and the release of the remaining hostages. In addition, some countries would accept Gaza civilians who wish to leave.
The agreement also proposed an expansion of the Abraham Accords to include Syria, Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries that would normalize relations with Israel.
Shockingly, Israel would agree to a two-state solution with a “reformed” Palestinian Authority.
The United States would recognize limited Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria.
Two diplomatic sources reported that Trump put substantial pressure on Netanyahu to end the war in Gaza and that this pressure existed even before Israel launched missiles against Iran, commencing Operation Rising Lion.
In addition, the sources said the reason for Trump’s anger and use of expletives when expressing frustration at Israel over its preparation to retaliate against Iran’s missile attack was his fear that Israel would not only fail to comply with the Iran ceasefire but that Netanyahu might back out of the general peace framework they had agreed upon.
Netanyahu’s renewed commitment to the joint proposal may have inspired Trump’s unprecedented social media post Thursday morning, insisting that the prime minister be exempt from standing trial on accusations of corruption.
