Biden urges Netanyahu to safeguard civilians, boost Gaza aid
In a recent high-stakes diplomatic call, President Joe Biden pressed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to prioritise the protection of civilian lives
President Biden emphasised the importance of avoiding civilian casualties and protecting innocent lives. He cited concerns over the mounting humanitarian crisis in Gaza, exacerbated by the recent hostilities. The United States has committed to providing substantial aid to the beleaguered region, and the President urged Israel to cooperate in ensuring the safe delivery of these vital resources.
