Hamas official urges US to pressure Israel to end Gaza war | Israel- Hamas war

In the ongoing conflict in Gaza, a senior Hamas official has called on the United States to put pressure on Israel to end the war.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is set to visit Egypt and Israel on Monday and he aims to ensure the war does not expand into Lebanon. He said, We call upon the U.S. administration to put pressure on the occupation to stop the war on Gaza and the Hamas movement is ready to deal positively with any initiative that secures an end to the war.

In his eighth visit to the region since Hamas militants attacked Israel on October 7, triggering the bloodiest episode in the decades-long Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Blinken is also set to travel to Jordan and Qatar this week.
