Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken expects to focus on Israel’s plan to shift to the third phase of the war on Hamas, a senior US official tells CNN.
The official adds that Blinken and his team will push Israel’s war leadership for an “imminent” transition to the next phase, which will see a reduction in the intensity of fighting and a possible return of Gazans to their homes in the northern part of the Strip.
