Sec. of State Antony Blinken met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel amid escalated tension in the region.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is visiting Israel and the West Bank on Monday and Tuesday, about a month into Israel's new ultra-right-wing, religiously conservative government led by returning Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The top U.S. diplomat's trip coincides with a flare-up in Israeli-Palestinian violence. But it was long planned, and follows a visit to Egypt. Blinken is in the region to take stock ofthreats new and old — new threats to checks and balances on Israel's democracy, often described as "the only democracy in the Middle East," and familiar threats from Iran.
