Vice President Kamala Harris on July 25 urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to finalize a deal to end the war in the Gaza Strip during a closed-door meeting at the White House.

President Joe Biden and other members of the administration have signaled that negotiators for Israel and the Hamas terrorist group are closing in on a deal to see the end of a nearly 10-month-old war and win the release of remaining hostages Hamas took during its attacks across southern Israel on Oct. 7.
