Foreign Minister Eli Cohen meets with new US Ambassador Jack Lew in Jerusalem.
According to the Foreign Ministry, the two discuss the war in Gaza, Iran’s support for terrorism, and ways to preserve the peace agreements Israel signed with Arab neighbors as part of the Abraham Accords in 2020.
Cohen and Lew also discuss the efforts to free the hostages held in Gaza since Hamas launched its shock assault on Israel on October 7.
“The unequivocal American solidarity and support moves many in Israel and strengthens us in the fight against the terrorist organization Hamas,” Cohen tells him.
