JAKARTA - United States (US) Vice President Kamala Harris plans to discuss ceasefire efforts in Gaza on a hostage-taking deal in a meeting with the president of the United Arab Emirates.
Reported by Reuters on Monday, September 23, Harris and US President Joe Biden met separately with UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the first meeting expected to be a series of gatherings of foreign leaders during the United Nations General Assembly week.
This gives Harris the opportunity to demonstrate national security capabilities when the Democratic Party's government is under growing pressure to stem disputes in the Middle East.
Israel attacked hundreds of Hezbollah targets on Monday in airstrikes that Lebanese health authorities said killed 182 people, making it Lebanon's deadliest day in nearly a year of conflict with Iran-backed enemies.
