Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to US Congress has the potential to cause disarray on both sides of the ocean.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is heading to Washington to make a politically precarious speech for the US Congress just as US President Joe Biden announced he will drop out of the race for the White House.
Netanyahu, who was travelling on Monday, is scheduled to address Congress on Wednesday. He is also expected to meet with Vice President Kamala Harris, who is seeking the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination. The Biden administration will look for progress toward the latest US-backed ceasefire proposal and details on a postwar vision. Republicans hope Netanyahu besmirches Biden and bolsters the GOP’s hoped-for perception as Israel’s stalwart supporter.
Israeli airstrikes killed at least 15 people, including women and children in Gaza, according to hospital officials and a body count by an Associated Press journalist on Sunday.
