0:32Now PlayingUS President Joe Biden told Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to agree to a cease-fire with Hamas as the White House’s frustrations over the continuation of the war in Gaza grow. #politics #biden #netanyahu #trump #harris #israel #palestine #ceasefire #gaza #hamas
The two leaders, whose relationship has been strained by the conflict, spoke Thursday. While Biden pledged to support Israel against renewed threats from Iran and allied militias such as Hezbollah, he said he was “very direct” with Netanyahu, with the regional fallout from the war, now almost 10 months’ old, worsening.
“We have the basis for a cease-fire,” Biden told reporters. “He should move on it and they should move on it now.”
He said the assassination in Iran this week of Ismail Haniyeh, the political leader of Hamas and a key negotiator for the group, had “not helped.”
