Biden discussed Middle East war with Western allies: White House

It said the leaders discussed their citizens trapped in the Israel-Hamas war, “particularly those wishing to leave Gaza.”

The fighting spiraled out of control and air strikes by Israel in Gaza killed many people as the humanitarian situation in the enclave worsened.

Another convoy of 17 aid trucks arrived in Gaza as the Hamas-run territory faced “catastrophic” shortages.

According to Israeli officials, Hamas militants crossed the border into Israel on October 7, killing at least 1,400 people.

They also captured more than 200 hostages in the worst attack in Israel’s history.

Israel has launched a sustained bombing campaign that has so far killed more than 4,600 Palestinians, mainly civilians, according to Gaza’s health ministry.
