JD Vance In Israel On Official Three-Day Visit

U.S. Vice President JD Vance is in Israel for an official three-day visit to address the fragile Gaza ceasefire. His trip follows President Trump's recent visit to the region, began on Tuesday, October 21, 2025. 

According to various news reports, the primary purpose of the trip is to strengthen the U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, which took effect on October 10. The truce has been shaky, with both sides accusing the other of violations. The administration sees this agreement as a crucial step towards a broader regional peace plan.

On Wednesday, Vance met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife, Sara, in Jerusalem. Few details about the discussion were released, but it likely centered on implementing the ceasefire and the second phase of Trump's plan.
