The New York Times quoted American officials as saying that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is waiting for President-elect Donald Trump to take office before changing his position on talks with the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas).
The newspaper added, citing Western officials, that Israel does not seem interested in making concessions and is skeptical of American and Arab ideas for managing Gaza.
Officials said Netanyahu believes the Palestinian Authority's administration of Gaza is doomed to fail, and that Hamas will quickly reassert control over the Gaza Strip after the war.
