Netanyahu to Fly to Moscow to Update Putin on Trump Plan

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will fly to Moscow on Wednesday to update Russian President Vladimir Putin on the details of the U.S. administration’s peace plan, a spokeswoman for the premier said.

Netanyahu’s trip comes amid signs that Putin may pardon Naama Issachar, a 26-year-old Israeli woman imprisoned in Russia on drug-smuggling charges.

A decision to free Issachar, in detention since April, could bolster Netanyahu, who’s been indicted on corruption charges and is fighting for his political survival at the country’s third election in less than a year in March.

President Donald Trump is due to unveil his plan to settle the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians later on Tuesday.
