Although Jack Lew, the U.S. ambassador to Israel, told the American Jewish community in a briefing on Monday that he cannot confirm whether Mohammed Deif was killed in an Israeli strike, there are “indications” that the Hamas leader is dead.
In the call, the U.S. envoy also said that he hopes that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to Congress, scheduled for July 24, will be bipartisan.
U.S. President Joe Biden has reportedly invited Netanyahu to the White House—something he hasn’t offered the Israeli leader since the latter was elected in December 2022.
