Oct. 23 (UPI) -- U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met in Jerusalem on Thursday to address issues regarding the fragile Gaza cease-fire agreement and the West Bank.
Netanyahu afterward told media that Israel and the United States seek to "advance peace" but must address challenges that might undermine their respective efforts.
"Now we face days of destiny," Netanyahu said. "We still have security challenges, but I think that we can work together" to address them.
Rubio and several others have visited Israel over the past week, which the prime minister called a "circle of trust and partnership" between the United States and Israel.
