JERUSALEM, Israel – The U.S. continues its full-court press for a ceasefire agreement in Gaza while Iran’s proxy Hezbollah pummels northern Israel with projectiles.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken returned to the Middle East for the ninth time since the start of the war in Gaza as ceasefire talks with Hamas seem to be faltering.
“This is a decisive moment, probably the best, maybe the last opportunity to get the hostages home, to get a ceasefire, and to put everyone on a better path to enduring peace and security,” Blinken stated.
He met with Israeli President Isaac Herzog, who pointed out Israel is fighting on multiple fronts, including terrorism, in the last 24 hours.
“We have suffered the loss of Gideon Parry, a 38-year-old father of three, who went to work in the plant, and one of his pals in the working place decided to murder him simply because he’s a Jew and an Israeli,” Herzog recounted, and added, “Last night, we’ve witnessed a suspected major terror attack in Tel Aviv, which is under investigation with a possible suicide bomber. And this morning, our soldiers have been attacked in Ya’ara – Ya’ara is on the border with Lebanon – by Hezbollah terrorists with drones.”
