在wordpress / php中的date_i18n

Question

I am working on a html/php code as shown below:

HTML/PHP Code:

<time datetime="<?php echo esc_attr(date_format($ts, 'H:i d-m-Y')) ?>"
   data-timezone="<?php echo esc_attr($tz_param) ?>"><?php echo ucfirst(date_i18n( 'F j H:i', $ts->getTimeStamp())); ?>
</time>

The above html/php code displays the following on inspect:

<time datetime="02:15 19-07-2019" data-timezone="he">Juillet 19 06:15</time>

The time here Juillet 19 06:15 doesn't seems to match the time here 02:15 19-07-2019 which is inside the datetime attribute

On debugging print_r($ts), it prints:

 DateTime Object
(
    [date] => 2019-07-19 01:00:00.000000
    [timezone_type] => 3
    [timezone] => America/New_York
)

Problem Statement:

I am wondering what changes I should make in the php code so that the time here Juillet 19 06:15 should be equal to the time inside datetime attribute 02:15 19-07-2019
