STORYLINE
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton landed on Tuesday evening at Tel Aviv international airport before continuing by road to Jerusalem, after a day of peace talks in the Egyptian red sea resort of Sharm el-Sheik.
Israeli and Palestinian leaders will continue peace talks in Jerusalem on Wednesday in another symbolic gesture aimed at underscoring the importance of the negotiations, the first direct talks between the two parties in almost two years.
The status of Jerusalem is one of the thorniest issues dividing the two sides.
Israel claims the undivided city as its capital, while the Palestinians want the eastern part to be the capital of an eventual state.
The ultimate aim is a deal that creates a sovereign Palestinian state beside a secure Israel.
The Palestinians want Israel's settlement curb extended beyond the current September 26 deadline and have said failure to do so will bring the peace talks to an early end.
Netanyahu has suggested at least some of the restraints will be lifted.
Clinton said the Obama administration believes Israel should extend the moratorium, but she also said it would take an effort by both sides to find a way around the problem.
She spoke with reporters on Monday during a flight from Washington to Egypt for the latest round of talks, which began this month in Washington.
The settlement freeze is not the only obstacle negotiators face. The two sides disagree over what to discuss first: security or borders.
The Palestinian group Hamas, which rules the Gaza Strip and doesn't recognise Israel, isn't party to the negotiations.
