Washington:

US President Joe Biden believes there can still be a diplomatic resolution to escalating tensions between Israel and Hezbollah following a series of pager and walkie-talkie bombings, his spokeswoman said Thursday.

“He believes it’s achievable,” Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told a briefing. “The president continues to believe that we have to be optimistic and a diplomatic resolution is the best way.”
