Rubio Heading to Israel After Vance Visit

2 days ago
As Vice President J.D. Vance wraps up his visit to Israel, Secretary of State Marco Rubio says he’s heading there next to help ensure the fragile Gaza ceasefire holds.

Earlier this week, Vance announced the opening of a U.S.–Israeli coordination center in southern Israel, where about 200 American troops are now working alongside the Israeli military. Rubio added that the U.S. is working to form an international stabilization force and train a Palestinian police unit to maintain security on the ground.
