The United States has issued the harshest public rebuke to Israel over the growing attacks and humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
US President Joe Biden calls for an immediate ceasefire during a phone call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
At the end of this week, an incident in which a World Central Kitchen charity convoy was attacked resulted in the deaths of 7 food service workers, further exacerbating the situation.
Therefore, Biden noted that Israel needs to "announce and implement a series of concrete and measurable steps to reduce civilian casualties, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of humanitarian workers.
