(Reuters) – U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken “conveyed concern” over escalating violence on the West Bank during a call with Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, the U.S. State Department said on Tuesday.
Blinken also expressed condolences to Cohen over a recent terrorist attack against Israeli citizens and urged all parties to work together to “de-escalate the situation”, the State Department said.
