Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has told lawmakers that Israel’s military campaign in Gaza offered opportunities to sign new peace accords with Arab nations and “dramatically change the face of” the Middle East, AFP reports.
“Moderate Arab countries view Israel as a regional power and a potential ally,” he said. “I intend to seize this opportunity to the fullest.
“Together with our American friends, I plan to expand the Abraham Accords … and thus change even more dramatically the face of the Middle East,” he said in parliament, referring to agreements which normalised ties between Israel and some Arab states during Donald Trump’s first term as US president.
