US Senator Bernie Sanders issued a statement on Saturday, condemning Israel's killing of Palestinian civilians, saying that the ongoing war on Gaza is one of the more "horrific moments in modern history".
Sanders called for Israel's indiscriminate killings of Palestinians to end, however, stopped short of calling for a ceasefire and instead urged for a humanitarian pause.
Earlier this week, US Senator Dick Durbin became the first senator to call for a ceasefire in Gaza.
