US Secretary of State John Kerry headed back to Israel Thursday as he continues a push to reignite peace negotiations.
Making his fourth trip to Israel since he began his tenure as the US chief diplomat in February, Kerry was due to arrive later Thursday and head straight into talks with top Israeli and Palestinian Authority leaders.
The meetings come after a long day of diplomacy in Jordan, during which he met with 10 other foreign ministers from the “Friends of Syria” group in a bid to try to end the Syrian conflict.
