Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Sunday and discussed several issues, including US President Donald Trump's plan to displace residents of the Gaza Strip and the second phase of the ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement.

Netanyahu said during a joint press conference with Rubio that "we have made it clear that Iran must not have a nuclear weapon, and there is nothing more important than this now."

Netanyahu said he was working with Trump "in full coordination, we have a common strategy, and it is not possible to reveal everything, including when the gates of hell will open if the kidnapped soldiers are not released."

He added, "Israel is determined to achieve all its goals after the horrific Hamas attack. We will make sure that Hamas will not pose a threat to Israel."

He added, "We talked about Trump's vision for Gaza, which is becoming a reality."

Netanyahu threatened Syria and Lebanon, saying that "Israel will work to prevent any threat from Syria," and claimed that "we are committed to the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon. We expect the Lebanese government to be equally committed."

In turn, Rubio said that "Trump clearly stated what his vision is for Gaza. Hamas cannot continue as an authority there," and that "the kidnapped must be returned to their homes, and we must eliminate Hamas in Gaza," considering that "freeing the kidnapped is not an option, but it must be done."
