Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is meeting US President Donald Trump in the White House, with the two expected to discuss developments in Gaza as well as tensions with Iran.
Netanyahu had met US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner for a briefing on US-Iran talks held last week in Oman on Tuesday.
Amid the meeting, Israeli legal changes to land ownership in the occupied West Bank that make it easier for Israeli's to buy property in the territory have sparked condemnation amid fears that the move furthers Israeli annexation.
The UN's agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, has condemned the move, with its chief, Philippe Lazzarini, saying that the measures "pave the way for accelerated expansion of settlements in the West Bank, further undermining the future of Palestinians."
The EU also condemned the move, calling it "another step in the wrong direction while the whole international community is making an effort to implement phase two of the comprehensive plan for Gaza".
