The U.S. State Department has dismissed Shahed Ghoreishi, its lead press officer for Israeli-Palestinian affairs, after a series of internal clashes over how the department should describe contentious Middle East policies, according to a Washington Post account corroborated by internal documents. Ghoreishi pressed for statements mourning journalists killed by Israeli strikes in Gaza and for language explicitly opposing the forced displacement of Palestinians, including a Trump-era proposal to relocate hundreds of thousands of people. Senior officials rejected those recommendations, and the disagreements culminated in his termination, the reports say.
