The US president has stated that his administration has been collaborating with the United Nations, Egypt, Jordan, and Israel to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid to the civilians in Gaza. However, it is important to note that Israel has made a commitment to withhold the provision of electricity, water, and food to Gaza until the hostages, who were captured by Hamas last Saturday, are released.
During a meeting in Amman, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas conveyed his opposition to the forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. Abbas cautioned Blinken that complying with Israel's evacuation directive for north Gaza would result in a "second Nakba," drawing parallels to the expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians from their homeland by Israel through coercion between 1947 and 1948.
Also on Saturday, Biden spoke by phone with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, pledging further material support to the Israel Defense Forces and telling the PM that “unity and determination” were needed to achieve Israel’s combat goals. According to a statement from his office, Netanyahu expressed gratitude towards his American counterpart.
The United States has made a consistent commitment to support Israel in its extensive response to the recent attack by Hamas. This attack resulted in the unfortunate loss of life for over 1,300 Israelis. The resulting Israeli bombing campaign – the heaviest in Gaza’s history – has killed upwards of 1,900 Palestinians and displaced over 430,000 inhabitants of the densely-populated territory.
