US Vice President Kamala Harris has pressured Israel i Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to help reach a Gaza ceasefire deal that would ease the suffering of Palestinian civilians, striking a tougher tone than US President Joe Biden. “It is time for this war to end,” Harris said on Thursday in a televised statement after face-to-face talks with Netanyahu.
Israel’s retaliatory attack in Gaza has killed more than 39,000 people and caused a humanitarian calamity with most of the coastal enclave levelled, people displaced from their homes, famine and a shortage of emergency relief. Biden met with Netanyahu earlier and told him he needed to close gaps to reach a ceasefire in Gaza and remove obstacles in the flow of aid, according to a readout of the meeting provided by the White House.
