U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is huddling with top Arab diplomats in Cairo to discuss post-conflict plans for Gaza as relations between the United States and Israel are souring further over Israel's war against Hamas
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken huddled Thursday with top Arab diplomats in Cairo to discuss post-conflict plans for Gaza as relations between the United States and Israel soured further over Israel’s war against Hamas, notably its intent to mount a major military operation against the southern city of Rafah.
The office said Thursday that Qatar’s prime minister and Egypt’s intelligence chief would also join the talks. Yet, growing disagreements between Netanyahu and President Joe Biden over the prosecution of the war will likely overshadow Blinken's meetings in Israel. Most notably, they are at odds over Israel's determination to launch a major military operation in Rafah, where more than a million Palestinians have sought refuge from devastating Israeli ground and air strikes further north.
