US VP calls out Israel over 'disaster' in Gaza

The Philippine Star

|

March 05, 2024

ALABAMA (Reuters) – US Vice President Kamala Harris bluntly called out Israel on Sunday for not doing enough to ease a “humanitarian disaster” in Gaza as the Biden administration faces increasing pressure to rein in its close ally while it wages war with Hamas militants.

Harris, speaking in front of the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, where state troopers beat US civil rights marchers nearly six decades ago, called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and urged Hamas to accept a deal to release hostages in return for a six-week cessation of hostilities.

But she directed the bulk of her comments at Israel in what appeared to be the sharpest rebuke yet by a senior leader in the US government over the conditions in the coastal enclave.
