Israeli officials shocked at Trump's Gaza ceasefire statement

Israeli officials said they were surprised by US President Donald Trump's remarks that a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip was imminent, according to a report in the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper.

Unnamed officials familiar with the prisoner negotiations in Gaza said they were surprised by the statements, and there were no signs of a change in the positions of Hamas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. They said Trump's words were “nothing more than political wishful thinking.”
