US Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides will be stepping down from his job as ambassador this summer, according to a report by Amit Segal. He already informed Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Advisor Andrew Sullivan of his intentions, during his recent visit to D.C. He will be temporarily by his deputy, Stephanie Hallett. Nides relationship with the current Israeli government has not been the best, to put it mildly. Related articles:
