Report: USA and Israel plan new meeting on offensive. It is currently unclear whether the meeting planned for the beginning of the week can take place.
The reason is an Israeli law that expires on April 1st and has previously exempted ultra-Orthodox people from military service. A law allowing their exemption expired last year. Since then, a temporary regulation has been in effect - but only until Sunday. Israel's government, which includes strict religious parties, is working on a new law to exempt ultra- orthodox believers.
