Here in the U.S., Secretary of State Antony Blinken told two top Israeli officials the civilian death toll in Gaza is “unacceptably high” during an Israeli visit to Washington, D.C. Israel has killed at least 38,700 Palestinians in Gaza since October 7, though the true death toll is likely much higher. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is still expected to address Congress on July 24, despite the reported concern about the death toll and mounting objections among Democrats to Netanyahu’s appearance.
