White House says ending Gaza war 'utmost' priority for Trump

U.S. President Donald Trump's "utmost priority" is to end the war in Gaza and free hostages held by Hamas, the White House said, ahead of a crucial meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday.

Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, will head to Qatar later this week, where Israel and the Palestinian militant group are holding indirect talks, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told a briefing.
