Defense Minister Benny Gantz met today (Monday) with U.S. Ambassador to Israel Michael Ratney.
According to reports, the two discussed relations with Gaza, including attempts to bring stability and promote the return of Israelis held by Hamas.
"I told the ambassador that Israel would continue to work together with the United States to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, and that the dialogue on the issue would be one between allies held behind closed doors," said Gantz.
