Live Briefing: Trump's latest picks for administration likely to buoy Israel hard-liners
Briefly

Trump's administration picks support Israeli expansionism and skepticism towards the two-state solution, reflecting alignment with the views of Israel's current leadership.
With Huckabee as ambassador and Hegseth as Defense Secretary, the new administration's stance appears poised to encourage more Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
Israel's far-right leaders like Ben Gvir express enthusiasm over Trump's cabinet choices, indicating a potential shift in U.S.-Israel relations towards more hardline policies.
The Biden administration's previous warnings on withholding military aid to Israel clash with Trump's commitment, suggesting a promise of continued support irrespective of Israel's actions in Gaza.
