The US State Department said that the scale of casualties in Gaza is catastrophic, and that it continues to search for ways to find consensus in the UN Security Council on ending the war, after the United States, on Wednesday, used its veto power against a draft resolution calling for a ceasefire in the Strip. .
The US State Department explained that Washington continues to “insist that Israel take all precautions to reduce harm to civilians,” saying that “the human losses in Gaza have made it devote diplomatic efforts to ending this war.”
She added that she wants to see more temporary humanitarian truces in the Gaza war, and continues to push for a diplomatic solution to stop the consequences of the tragic war in the Strip, noting that Washington “will not abandon the American hostages” in Gaza.
Regarding the Lebanese front, the US State Department said that it is continuing what it called making progress to reach a diplomatic solution in Lebanon, and that it will discuss in Israel the broad outlines of a possible diplomatic agreement in Lebanon.
She added that she is focusing on what she called Iranian arms supplies to Hezbollah, and that she still sees Iran as “a major threat in the Middle East, and continues to support Israel in defending itself.”
OhThis is while the Israeli raids on Lebanon continue with the exchange of bombing with Hezbollah, in addition to Israel continuing its devastating war on Gaza, leaving more than 148 thousand Palestinian martyrs and wounded, and more than 10 thousand missing, amid massive destruction and a worsening famine looming over the besieged Strip. .
