The US Secretary of State will head to the Middle East later on Thursday, on a trip that's expected to include a stop in Israel.
Antony Blinken's previous trip to Israel was during a seven-day pause in fighting.
Blinken's visit comes at period of heightened tension in the region, following the killing of a senior Hamas figure in Lebanon.
Al Jazeera’s Laura Khan has the latest from the occupied East Jerusalem.
