The President of the United States, Joe Biden, has assured that the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, is making “a mistake” in the Israeli offensive against the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the Gaza Strip, and He assured that “there are no excuses” that prevent the enclave from being provided with humanitarian aid, which is why it has insisted on a ceasefire.

“I think what you are doing is a mistake. It’s intolerable“Biden declared after being asked about Netanyahu’s actions during an interview with the American television channel Univision. The president took the opportunity to insist on the establishment of a ceasefire that allows the entry of humanitarian assistance for the population in Gaza , which is suffering a serious crisis as a result of the extensive destruction of civil infrastructure and the lack of food and other essential materials.

“What I ask of the Israelis is a ceasefire and allow, over the next six or eight weeks, total access to all food and medicines that enter the country. I have spoken to everyone, the Saudis, the Jordanians and the Egyptians. They are ready to enter. They are prepared to move this food. And I believe that there is no excuse for not addressing the medical and food needs of these people. “It should be done now,” Biden added.

Furthermore, he has once again criticized the Israeli attack against a group of workers from the NGO World Central Kitchen (WCK), which left seven dead. The Israeli Army launched an offensive on the Strip following the Hamas attacks on October 7, which left 1,200 dead and 240 hostagesof which a hundred have already been released.
