Updates on the Al-Aqsa Flood operation presented in this episode of Samri Channel.
The beginning of the important tour that US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan is currently making to the Middle East. Al-Abyad said in a statement that Sullivan met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in the Kingdom to discuss a mechanism to achieve lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians. They also discussed the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip and the efforts that must meet the relief needs there, including ways to increase... The flow of necessary aid to the besieged sector.

Among the files that worry the United States and were discussed with the Saudi Crown Prince are the Yemeni Houthi group’s attacks on commercial ships passing in the Red Sea, and its control of Bab al-Mandab, which puts the security of global trade at risk and threatens the safety of ship crews. According to the White House statement, Sullivan and Prince Mohammed bin Salman also discussed enhancing bilateral cooperation in the fields of security, trade, space exploration, and advanced technologies, including open wireless communications networks.

American negotiations aimed at reaching an agreement to normalize relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia were halted after the outbreak of war between Israel and Hamas in October, but all parties said they wanted to continue reviving efforts when the time was right. Sullivan will arrive in Israel on Thursday, December 14, to hold discussions with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and members of the Israeli Military Ministerial Council, about the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip. According to John Kirby, spokesman for the White House National Security Council, Sullivan will discuss with the Israelis the need to be more precise and specific in their attacks on Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip. This means that the United States, a permanent ally of Israel, and its National Security Advisor will not address the UN calls for an “immediate humanitarian ceasefire” in Gaza, but rather will discuss a military strategy to continue the bombing of the Strip. US President Joe Biden had warned that Israel was losing support due to its “indiscriminate” bombing of Gaza and that Netanyahu should change his government, revealing a new rift in relations with the Israeli Prime Minister.

In another context, informed Egyptian sources told Sky News Arabia that Israel requested mediation from Cairo and Doha to conclude a prisoner and detainee exchange deal as part of a new humanitarian truce in Gaza. Hopes for a truce have become the subject of discussion in Palestinian and Israeli circles, but they have not yet matured, and therefore its features have not been clear. The sources explained that the Egyptian side has already engaged in new mediation with the Qatari and American sides to implement a new prisoner exchange deal soon between Hamas and Israel. The sources pointed to expected meetings between Israel, Egypt and Qatar, under American sponsorship, soon in this context. A humanitarian truce between Hamas and Israel that lasted for a week and ended on December 1 witnessed the release of 105 hostages from Gaza, including 80 Israelis, in exchange for Israel releasing 240 Palestinian prisoners. But efforts to extend the truce have faltered, and Israel says at least 137 detainees are believed to still be held by Hamas.
