US Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived in Israel on Tuesday as President Joe Biden pushed for cease-fires in both Lebanon and Gaza ahead of the upcoming US elections. Despite ongoing efforts, Israel and Hezbollah continue exchanging heavy fire. An Israeli airstrike near Beirut’s Rafik Hariri University Hospital killed four people. Hezbollah responded by launching missiles toward Tel Aviv, maintaining its threat to Israel despite heavy losses to its leadership.
