Peace Council CEO Nikolay Mladenov and advisor Aryeh Lightstone met with Prime Minister Netanyahu on Monday and urged him to halt Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip, arguing that Israel committed to doing so under President Trump's 20-point plan, according to a source familiar with the details reported by Barak Ravid (N12).
The Zioneer reported earlier today that Mladenov met with Netanyahu and requested a halt to Gaza strikes to facilitate diplomatic progress. The current report, from Barak Ravid (N12), adds that advisor Aryeh Lightstone was also present and that the demand was explicitly tied to the 20-point plan outlined by President Trump. The Peace Council has previously pushed for a cessation of strikes, as The Zioneer reported on July 31, arguing that continued operations undercut the diplomatic framework.
