The two leaders' meeting came with no sign of a breakthrough yet in the latest round of Israel-Hamas negotiations in Qatar.

President Trump said at the top of his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he thinks Hamas and Israel "want to have that ceasefire" in Gaza. Why it matters: Trump has been pressuring both Israel and Hamas — through Qatari and Egyptian mediators — to agree to a deal that includes a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza and the release of 10 living hostages and 18 bodies.

The Israeli delegation didn't have a sufficient mandate to reach an agreement with Hamas, two Palestinian sources told Reuters.
