U.S. Secretary of State meets Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, pushes for ceasefire

U.S. Secretary of States Antony Blinken met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday in what is being seen as a last big push for ceasefire in the Middle-East, and the last one by the Joe Biden administration before the U.S. presidential election of November 5.

Blinken is in the Middle-East for the week meeting leaders of different countries there, trying to convince them for the ceasefire, though he has a daunting task in that.

Meanwhile, according to reports by news organisations, Hezbollah launched rockets upon Israel capital Tel Aviv, and Israel continued its air-attacks on southern Beirut. Hezbollah on Tuesday claimed responsibility for the drone attack on Netanyahu’s holiday home.

Though the U.S. has been trying to bring Israel around the peace-talk, Israel is in no mood to relent even after killing Sinwar.
