US President Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that there needs to be a “continuous flow” of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip.
Biden made the comments in a call with Netanyahu on Monday, according to a White House statement.
Biden also noted the release of two additional Israeli hostages by Hamas Monday, and reaffirmed his commitment to secure the release of all the remaining hostages taken by the group—including Americans – while providing safe passage for US citizens and other civilians trapped in the besieged Gaza Strip.
Biden and Netanyahu also discussed US support for Israel and the deployment of additional US military assets in the region.
