The White House statement stated, “The US President informed Netanyahu that he opposes the occupation of Gaza again.”
US President Joe Biden said tonight that during his conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he asked him for a truce in the fighting in Gaza, and various reports stated that Biden told Netanyahu that a truce of this kind, for at least three days, could help release some of the kidnapped people.
The White House stated that Biden told Netanyahu that he “opposes the occupation of Gaza again.” US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said, “Occupying Gaza again is incorrect. Israel and the United States are allies, but we must not agree to every matter.” He added that “Netanyahu and Biden also do not always agree on every issue.” The White House’s statements come after Netanyahu said during an interview with ABC that “Gaza must be managed by those who do not want to continue on the path of Hamas,” without going into detail. In details.
The Abductees’ Families Forum commented on what was reported and said: “We ask the government of Israel to adhere to the principle that any truce in the war over a long or short period must be conditional on the immediate release of abductees. The Forum strongly opposes any truce in exchange for discussions aimed at wasting time and psychological warfare for the families of the abductees.”
