US Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrives in Doha for talks with Gaza mediator Qatar as part of a diplomatic effort aimed at heading off further escalation in the region.
The visit to the Gulf emirate, which hosts Hamas and has led mediation for a Gaza truce alongside the United States and Egypt, follows talks in Israel and Saudi Arabia on Blinken’s 11th visit to the region since the start of the war last year.
