US Secretary of State Antony Blinken will push Israel to agree to humanitarian pauses to the fighting in Gaza, The New York Times reports.

Citing White House officials, the report says that Blinken will not discuss a “ceasefire,” but a series of short windows without attacks in order to allow hostages to be released and for aid to be distributed.

Kan news reported that Netanyahu was considering honoring the US request.
