This is VOA News. Via remote, I'm Joe Ramsey. The White House says U.S. President Joe Biden told Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu he expects "significant de-escalation" on Wednesday in its military confrontation with the Palestinians amid intense efforts to reach a cease-fire. Airstrikes and rocket fire continue in Gaza in the conflict that has, since May 10, claimed more than 225 Palestinian lives, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, and killed 12 people in Israel, according to police there. As diplomatic efforts intensify, Germany says its top diplomat is heading to Israel for talks on Thursday. The U.S., a key Israel ally, has repeatedly blocked adoption of a joint U.N. Security Council statement calling for a halt to hostilities. It said Wednesday it would not support a proposed resolution calling for a cease-fire, saying it could undermine efforts to de-escalate the crisis. U.S. military officials also said Wednesday Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin "urged de-escalation" during a call with his Israeli counterpart but "underscored his continued support for Israel's right to defend itself."
Nearly three dozen U.S. Republican lawmakers in the House of Representatives joined hundreds of Democrats Wednesday, voting to create an independent commission to investigate the deadly January 6th attack on the Capitol by then president Donald Trump supporters. Republican leaders had worked to kill a bipartisan bill to establish the commission. But 175 House Republicans did vote against the measure following a request from former President Donald Trump but 35 from the American right-wing party joined 217 Democrats, the left-wing majority.

欢迎收听美国之音新闻。我是乔·拉姆齐，为您远程报道。白宫表示，美国总统拜登对以色列总理内塔尼亚胡说，他预计以色列与巴勒斯坦的军事对抗将在星期三出现“显著缓和”，双方正在加紧努力达成停火协议。自5月10日加沙冲突以来空袭和火箭弹袭击持续不断，加沙卫生部称此次冲突造成超过225个巴勒斯坦人死亡；加沙警方称，此次冲突造成12个以色列人死亡。随着外交努力的加强，德国表示，德国高级外交官将于周四前往以色列进行会谈。作为以色列的一个重要盟友，美国一再阻挠联合国安理会通过呼吁停止敌对行动的联合声明。周三，美国表示，它将不支持呼吁停火的拟议决议，称这可能会破坏旨在缓和危机的努力。美国军方官员星期三还表示，国防部长劳埃德·奥斯汀在与以色列国防部长通话时“敦促缓和局势”，但“强调会继续支持以色列自卫的权利”
星期三，美国众议院近三十名共和党议员联同数百名民主党议员，投票成立一个独立委员会，调查时任总统特朗普支持者1月6日袭击国会大厦的致命事件。共和党领导人曾努力扼杀两党提出的建立独立委员会的法案。但在前总统特朗普提出要求后，175名众议院共和党人确实投票反对这项措施，但还是有35个美国右翼政党人加入了217名民主党人的阵营，致使投赞成票中的左翼占多数。欢迎收听美国之音新闻。
