US Secretary of State Colin Powell has begun what is expected to be a final round of talks with Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon before he takes his peace mission to Egypt on Wednesday.
Before the meeting - the third with Mr Sharon since Mr Powell arrived in Israel last Thursday - the secretary of state said ceasefire talks were making progress.
Mr Powell will hold a second round of talks with Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat on Wednesday, before flying to Cairo where US officials said he would brief Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak on his peace mission.
