Joe Biden with Benjamin Netanyahu
As the death toll in Gaza exceeded 10,000, US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed the possibility of pauses in Israeli military operations on Monday.
According to the White House, the two leaders discussed the possibility of tactical pauses to provide civilians with opportunities to safely depart from areas of ongoing fighting, to ensure assistance is reaching civilians in need, and to enable potential hostage releases.
Monday was the 31st day of warfare in the Palestinian territory since Hamas began an unprecedented offensive on Israel on October 7 that killed 1,400 people.
