U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken met on June 10 with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, reaffirming Washington’s support of a cease-fire proposal submitted by Israel.

During his meeting with Mr. Netanyahu in Jerusalem, Mr. Blinken said the proposed deal would lead to an immediate cease-fire in Gaza, the release of all hostages in the hands of Hamas terrorists, and a significant increase in humanitarian aid across the war-torn enclave, according to a State Department spokesman.
