The American leader wanted to discuss the reduction of civilian casualties and the flow of humanitarian aid to civilians in the Gaza Strip.
US President Joe Biden will visit Israel on Wednesday, October 18. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said this during his visit to Israel, reports CNN and The Times of Israel.
Blinken made the announcement about Biden’s visit after an eight-hour meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his military cabinet at the IDF military headquarters, Kiriya, in Tel Aviv.
Blinken said Biden wanted to hear from Israeli leaders “how they will conduct their operations to minimize civilian casualties.”
In addition, it is necessary to simultaneously “ensure the flow of humanitarian aid to civilians in the Gaza Strip so that it does not benefit Hamas.”
We remind you that the WHO said that Gaza is one step away from a humanitarian disaster. The region is running out of water and fuel, hospitals are overcrowded, and there are piles of garbage on the streets, threatening the spread of infections.
We remind you that according to the Israeli military, Hamas militants are blocking the evacuation of the population of the Gaza Strip.
