This is reported by a number of local mass media.

Blinken plans to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Yitzhak Herzog and several ministers. Blinken will then travel to Jordan, where he will meet with the head of the Palestinian Authority, President Mahmoud Abbas, who is not supported by Hamas.
