Chairman Of The House Foreign Affairs Committee

Israel got a warning from Egypt of potential violence three days before Hamas caught Israeli forces off-guard in a large-scale attack, the chairman of the powerful US House Foreign Affairs Committee said Wednesday.

Congressman Eliot Engel, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, was not aware of the inclusion of non-member Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal and two others to the list of lawmakers to meet External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar in Washington DC last week, sources told PTI.

Pakistan remains a "safe haven" for terrorists and a source of "radical Islamist thought" while its security agencies support terrorist groups destabilising Afghanistan and threatening India, a top US lawmaker said on Wednesday.
