The announcement comes following President Trump's meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and opposition leader Benny Gantz in Washington earlier on Tuesday.

US President Donald Trump is unveiling his peace plan for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict during a joint press statement with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House.

This comes following Trump's meeting with Netanyahu and Israeli opposition leader Benny Gantz in Washington earlier in the day. 

The US started working on the Mideast peace plan, which was described by Trump as the "deal of the century", three years ago, with Trump's son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner overseeing the process. The release of the plan has been postponed several times for different reasons.
