Local Editor

Zionist Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman told US Secretary of State John Kerry on Wednesday that "Israel" truly appreciated that the US stood by its side during the recent seven-week aggression against seized Gaza.

Meeting with Kerry in Washington on Wednesday, Lieberman added that "Israelis" know that the United States is "Israel's" greatest friend.

Lieberman also told Kerry said that "Israel" supports the United States and its efforts to form a coalition against so-called "Daesh" [ISIL], promising to assist "in any way we can."

Moreover, Lieberman asked Kerry to lift the travel warning issued by the US during the aggression to visit "Israel."

The 50-day aggression dubbed "Operation Protective Edge" by "Israel" ended on August 26 after martyring more than 2,150 Palestinians, most of them civilians. It also left more than 11,000 injured and 100,000 homeless.
