The Biden administration and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were sharply at odds over prospects of reaching a deal for a Gaza cease-fire and hostage release, with Netanyahu saying it was "exactly inaccurate" that a breakthrough was close.
"There's not a deal in the making," Netanyahu said in an interview Thursday with "Fox and Friends." His public skepticism comes as U.S. officials said they were working on a revised proposal to address remaining disputes between Israeli and Hamas leaders after the weekend discovery of six dead hostages added urgency to the talks.
