Trump receives Netanyahu in Florida today to discuss Israel's plan for Gaza
The two leaders will meet for the fifth time this year. Unlike previous appointments, there seems to be a certain distance between them this time because, according to various sources, they do not have the same position on the departure of Iran or Israeli troops from Gaza.

In Florida (USA), the luxurious residence of Mar-a-Lago, US President Donald Trump is holding another important meeting today after receiving Ukrainian leader Volodimir Zelenski yesterday. This time, Israeli Prime MinisterBinyamin Netanyahu will be visiting to discuss his plan for the Gaza Strip.
Israel and Hamas have accused each other of failing to comply with the agreements. Over the past two long years, Tel Aviv has killed 71,000 Palestinians and caused a serious humanitarian crisis.
The plan agreed between Israel and the US consists of two phases, and Donald Trump's intention is to announce the beginning of that second phase soon. But to do so, Hamas must hand over the remains of the last kidnapped in its possession. As agreed, in the second phase Israel will have to withdraw troops from Gaza, Hamas will have to lay down its arms and an international force will have to enter Gaza to prevent fighting.
This year's fifth meeting between Trump and Netanyahu will be preceded by a meeting with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Israeli Prime Minister.
Iran, possible source of disputes
The two leaders have held their previous meetings in a good atmosphere, but according to The Washington Post , today's meeting may be different. They say there have been discrepancies between various issues. So, and always according to sources quoted by the US media, Iran may be one of the thorny issues.
The United States is also opposed to a coup in Syria and Lebanon.
