(24 Jul 2014) US Secretary of State John Kerry arrived in Cairo on Thursday, after spending a day in Israel discussing the possibilty of a ceasefire between Israel and Gaza.
Kerry, who met for the second time this week with United Nations chief Ban Ki-moon, flew to Israel on an Air Force jet, despite a ban imposed a day earlier by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration on commercial flights into Ben-Gurion Airport because of Hamas rocket fire nearby.
Ban and Kerry were jointly lobbying officials in the region to push Hamas and Israel to a cease-fire as soon as possible.
Kerry later met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for nearly two hours in Tel Aviv, but made no comments and headed immediately back to Cairo.
