United States Vice President Kamala Harris called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and pressed Israel to increase the flow of aid to alleviate what she called “inhumane” conditions and a “humanitarian catastrophe” among the Palestinian people.

“People in Gaza are starving. The conditions are inhumane and our common humanity compels us to act,” said Harris. “The Israeli government must do more to significantly increase the flow of aid. There are no excuses”.
“Hamas claims it wants a ceasefire. Well, there’s a deal on the table. And, as we’ve said, Hamas needs to agree to this deal,” Harris said. “Let’s achieve a ceasefire. Let’s reunite the hostages with their families. And let us provide immediate relief to the people of Gaza.”
