Blinken in the Middle East: What are Gaza cease-fire deal breakers? | DW News

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is in Israel to push for a cease-fire in Gaza, after talks resumed in Doha last week. In a meeting with Israeli President Isaac Herzog, Blinken said the negotiations are a decisive moment in the war.
