Biden Optimistic about Extending Israel-Gaza Truce and Conditioning Military Aid
TL;DR Summary
US President Joe Biden has expressed optimism about the possibility of extending the four-day pause in Israel's war on Gaza. He emphasized the need for pressure from the Arab world and the region to bring an end to the conflict quickly. Biden reiterated his support for Israel's mission to "eliminate" Hamas but encouraged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to limit civilian casualties. As part of the truce, captives are being released, and humanitarian aid is being delivered to Gaza. However, the level of destruction remains high, and Israel intensified its attacks before the truce took effect.
