US envoy: I give Israel ‚a lot of credit‘ for its handling of Jerusalem tensions – Tom Nides notes recent friction in capital, which included frequent clashes on Temple Mount, didn’t spiral into war with Gaza-ruling Hamas as it did last year | Timesofisrael
The US ambassador to Israel said Tuesday that he gives Israel’s government “a lot of credit” for its handling of tensions in Jerusalem over the past month, which saw a rare confluence of Passover, Ramadan and Easter.
“I think things went pretty well,” Ambassador Thomas Nides said during an event hosted by the Atlantic Council.
Nides said he spent a lot of time in the lead-up to April speaking with Israeli, Palestinian, Jordanian and Egyptian leaders about defusing tensions in the capital.
