Antony Blinken, the U.S. Secretary of State, has initiated a series of discussions with Israeli leaders to address the issue of increasing humanitarian aid into Gaza.
Simultaneously, he has been urging Hamas, the Palestinian militant group, to accept a proposed deal aimed at securing the release of hostages and achieving a ceasefire.
Following his visits to Riyadh and Amman earlier in the week, Blinken is now in Israel, the final stop of his broader Middle East tour.
Reports indicate that Blinken is currently meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem.
This marks Blinken's seventh visit to the region, which has been engulfed in conflict since October 7th when Hamas launched an attack on Israel.
Blinken's main focus during his time in Israel is to pressure the Israeli government into taking specific actions to enhance the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza.
He emphasised the need to address the suffering of the people in Gaza amidst the ongoing crossfire instigated by Hamas, while also striving to secure a ceasefire and the release of hostages.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited Brussels for urgent talks with EU and NATO officials on boosting support for Ukraine, amid concerns over potential policy shifts after Donald Trump returns to the White House.

Tensions in the Red Sea escalated dramatically as Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels targeted the Panama-flagged bulk carrier Anadolu S with two missile strikes in a matter of hours. The first attack occurred late Sunday night, narrowly missing the vessel's stern. Despite warnings, the ship continued its course, prompting a second strike the following day, landing just a nautical mile away.
While no casualties or damage were reported, the incident highlights the Houthis' growing maritime campaign, which they claim is in solidarity with Gaza. The Bahrain-based Combined Task Force confirmed the strikes, raising concerns over shipping safety in the region. This bold assault underscores the escalating risks for international vessels navigating the Red Sea amid intensifying regional tensions.

National Unity leader Benny Gantz condemned the recent flash bomb attack near Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's home, calling it "terrorism" and not a legitimate protest. The attack, which occurred early Sunday morning, involved the firing of flares at Netanyahu's private residence in Caesarea. While no damage or casualties were reported, the incident has sparked outrage among Israeli leaders. Gantz, a vocal critic of Netanyahu, emphasised that lawful protest is the only acceptable form of opposition. Culture and Sports Minister Miki Zohar, from Netanyahu's Likud party, used the attack to push for the completion of the controversial judicial overhaul, arguing that the incident reflected a failure of the justice system. The Israeli Police and Shin Bet are investigating the attack, which marks a dangerous escalation amid rising tensions and violence directed at the Israeli government.
