US President Joe Biden just got off the phone with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss efforts to secure a ceasefire and hostage release deal, the White House says.
Vice President Kamala Harris joined in on the call, which comes after Arab mediators told The Times of Israel that the US will have to pressure Israel to withdraw from new demands regarding continued IDF presence in the Philadelphi and Netzarim corridors if it wants to secure a deal.
The US submitted a bridging proposal last week that the Arab mediators said went too far toward Netanyahu’s demands regarding force deployment in and around Gaza.
