It is part of a push for a ceasefire agreement.
Washington is under increasing pressure as warnings grow over catastrophic famine in Gaza and a ground invasion in Rafah.
And the talks are happening as the US adopts its strongest language towards Israel yet, submitting a draft resolution to the UN that recognises the need for an 'immediate ceasefire' tied to the release of captives held by Hamas.
