America's top diplomat en route to Middle East for talks

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is headed to the Middle East for continued diplomatic discussions on the Israel-Gaza war. 


His trip to "a number" of countries, including Israel, comes as the Israeli army withdraws thousands of its troops from the Palestinian strip and shifts to lower-intensity military operations, following its ground offensive in the Hamas-run territory.   


But the conflict also shows signs of escalating to the wider region, with a suspected Israeli strike on a Hamas leader in Lebanon, twin Islamic State bombings in Iran, and with Iran-funded Houthi militants in Yemen attacking ships in the Red Sea.
