Vance never attended a national political convention. Doug Mills/The New York Times Vance in the spotlight All eyes are on Donald Trump’s running mate, J.D. Vance, who is set to deliver a prime time speech at the Republican convention in a few hours. The political newcomer, who joined the Senate just last year, has had few opportunities to connect with American voters beyond his constituents in Ohio.

He led a battle in the Senate, unsuccessfully, to block a $60 billion military aid package for Ukraine. Middle East: A steadfast supporter of Israel’s war against Hamas, Vance has pushed for aid to Israel while trying to deny aid to Ukraine. He acknowledged the civilian casualties in Gaza, but he maintained that the blame lies not with Israel but with Hamas. Climate: A strong supporter of the oil and gas industry, Vance has said that climate change is not a threat. He is skeptical of the science showing that human activity is driving global warming, and he has voiced opposition to wind and solar energy and to electric vehicles. Trade: Vance supports “broad-based tariffs, especially on goods coming in from China,” because he said that they threaten American jobs and commerce.

The release of the unverifiable number was meant to show progress toward Israel’s goal of destroying Hamas. A military spokesman did not specify how many Hamas fighters were killed versus how many were apprehended, and did not specify how Israel distinguished combatants from civilians. The Israeli military also said that it had eliminated half the leadership of Hamas’s military wing. Throughout the war, there has been heated debate about how many people have been killed in Gaza and what proportion of those have been fighters. The Gaza Health Ministry on Tuesday said that more than 38,000 people had been killed in Gaza since the start of the conflict. The ministry has consistently said that most of the dead have been civilians.
