US to reopen Jerusalem consulate, upgrading Palestinian ties

By JOSEPH KRAUSS Associated Press JERUSALEM (AP) â Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced Tuesday that the U.S. would reopen its consulate in Jerusalem â a move that restores ties with Palestinians that had been downgraded by the Trump administration. The consulate long served as an autonomous office in charge of diplomatic relations with the Palestinians. But former U.S. President Donald Trump downgraded its operations and placed them under the authority of his ambassador to Israel when he moved the embassy to Jerusalem. Trump s move infuriated the Palestinians, who view east Jerusalem as occupied territory and the capital of their future state.

US Secretary of State stops in Israel to shore up Gaza truce

The war was triggered by weeks of clashes in Jerusalem between Israeli police and Palestinian protesters in and around the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, a flashpoint holy site. The protests were directed at Israel’s policing of the area during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan and the threatened eviction of dozens of Palestinian families by Jewish settlers. The evictions were put on hold just before the Gaza fighting erupted, but the legal process is set to resume in the coming weeks. Police briefly clashed with protesters at Al-Aqsa on Friday, hours after the cease-fire came into effect. The site is revered by Jews and Muslims, and has seen several outbreaks of Israeli-Palestinian violence over the years.
