During “extensive” meetings with Israel’s Netanyahu this week, US President Biden claims to have repeatedly advised him that there “has to be a temporary ceasefire” in the war on Gaza. At least five patients have passed away as a result of Israel’s entry into Khan Younis’ Nasser Hospital, following the cutting off of oxygen supplies and electricity. Since October 7, Israel’s attacks on Gaza have resulted in at least 28,775 Palestinian deaths and 68,552 injuries. 1,139 people have died in Israel as a result of the strikes led by Hamas on October 7.
