It is noted that the meetings with Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi and United Arab Emirates Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed al-Nahyan are likely to be devoted to efforts to support plans to ensure stability, security and reconstruction in the Gaza Strip after the war.

At the same time, Blinken's meeting with Lebanon's interim Prime Minister Najib Mikati will focus on the Israeli military campaign against Hezbollah, which has led to massive civilian casualties in Lebanon, particularly in the capital Beirut.

At a press conference on Thursday, the US Secretary of State said that Israel's fight against Hezbollah “cannot and should not lead to a protracted campaign” in Lebanon. He called on Israel to take the necessary measures to prevent harm to civilians, the Lebanese military and UN peacekeepers.
