Citing three anonymous officials in Tel Aviv, Politico reports that US President Joe Biden’s administration has told Israel that it has until the end of 2023 to conclude the war in Gaza against Hamas.
This deadline was underlined by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on a visit to Israel this week.
When Israeli officials told Blinken that fighting in southern Gaza could last several months, Blinken reportedly responded by saying: “You don’t have that much credit."
