LIVE: Israel-Gaza War
Vice President Harris, who has been actively engaged in conversations and phone calls about the Middle East issue, reaffirmed her total support for the government's measures, according to ANI, which cited CNN. She made it clear that she supported Israel's right to self-defense and was an advocate for civilian protection.
Most estimates place the number of killed Israelis at least 1,400. Without a doubt, Israel has the right to self-defense," Harris said.
Having said that, it is crucial that Hamas and the Palestinians remain separate entities. Harris was reported by CNN as stating, "We have been very clear and the rules of war must be adhered to as well as that there's is humanitarian aid than flows. The Palestinians deserves equal standards for security and safety, as well as self-determination and dignity."
Prior to this, US President Joe Biden spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the phone about the events in Gaza.
According to ANI, Biden underlined the need of carrying out searches to find and achieve the release of captives and reiterated Israel's legal right to defend its people against terrorist threats. In order to meet the demands of Gaza's civilian population, he further emphasized how urgently humanitarian relief distribution must be significantly increased.
Concurrently, Harris restated President Biden's admonitions to Iran to stay out of the matter.
"Avoid it," she said. "In a word. Quite simple."
Gaza got its biggest humanitarian cargo since Israel and Hamas started fighting on the 24th day of the Israel-Gaza conflict. The top 10 developments are listed below.
In a post published on Platform X earlier on Sunday, Netanyahu poked fun at his intelligence officers, claiming they never alerted him to the fact that Hamas was preparing a massive strike on October 7, 2023. Netanyahu then withdrew and apologized for the comment.
Concerning Gaza's escalating food and sickness crisis, the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) has issued warnings.
