Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair is expected to arrive in Israel tonight and meet with a series of senior officials, as first reported by Kan News. Blair, considered a key figure in the 'Peace Council' of US President Donald Trump, arrives against the backdrop of the election results and the political deadlock in Israel, and amid aspirations to advance initiatives regarding the future of the Gaza Strip. The Peace Council has not yet issued a response. Blair maintains good ties with the Israeli leadership and was involved in efforts to promote normalization between Israel and Saudi Arabia. His name was previously removed from the list of possible candidates to lead the council, according to reports, due to opposition from several Arab and Muslim countries. The visit comes amid the stalemate in talks with Hamas and the IDF's military activity in the Strip. The British Guardian reported last month that Israel prevented the establishment of an outpost for the first 150 soldiers of the international stabilization force of the Peace Council.
