US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was expected to press Israel to wind down major combat operations in Gaza on a visit Monday, in the latest test of whether the US can leverage its unwavering support for the offensive to blunt its devastating impact on Palestinian civilians. The US head of defence is also expected to discuss recent attacks by the Iran-aligned Yemeni Houthi militant group on ships in the Red Sea, FRANCE 24's Irris Makler said, citing Israeli and US sources.
