YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Joe Biden said Israel agreed to allow the flow of humanitarian aid to Gaza and cited US intelligence to support claims that Palestinians were to blame for a deadly hospital blast as he concluded a high-stakes visit to the region Wednesday.

Biden said Israel’s war cabinet had agreed “to the delivery of life-saving humanitarian assistance to civilians in Gaza” and that trucks would begin carrying aid from Egypt across the border.

The US president also announced $100 million in aid for both Gaza and the West Bank and said there would be checks to ensure that aid went to civilians in need and not to Hamas, which controls Gaza and has been categorized as a terrorist organization by the US and European Union.
