Summary

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:     We'll begin with an update on the war in Gaza, as Hamas reportedly yields to two of Israel’s key demands for a ceasefire, reigniting hopes that a deal can be struck to pause the fighting and rescue the remaining hostages before the year ends. Later in the show, president-elect Donald Trump has begun to outline his plans for bringing the war in Ukraine to an end, advocating a strategy that would see Europe shoulder most of the financial and military burden of supporting Kyiv over the long term. Plus, we’ll bring you the latest news on the mystery drones spooking residents across New Jersey, as the White House downplays any potential threats to national security. In our 'Back of the Brief' segment, the Biden administration quietly renewed a controversial sanctions waiver granting Iran access to some $10 billion in electricity payments from Iraq. We’ll discuss the implications, as concerns mount that Iran will use the funds to sponsor terrorism.
