Biden Asks For 3-Day Pause In Fighting; Israel Pushes Back On WH Comments

ISRAEL

Wires reporting that US President Joe Biden has called for a three-day pause in Gaza fighting, and a pause much longer than that to get hostages out. Comes amid reports of Israeli pushback on White House comments regarding humanitarian pauses. Barak Ravid at Axios posts on X: "Israeli officials say this is not new and that for several days now they announced pauses to allow people from northern Gaza to go south. "There is nothing more than that", a senior official told me."

  • Earlier US National Security Council coordinator John Kirby suggestedthat Israel had agreed to implement four-hour pauses 'starting today'. Kirby's comments were taken to imply some sort of variation from the pauses that had taken place in previous days, perhaps indicating a more permanent nature, but the comments to Ravid would seem to question this assumption.
  • Speaking outside the White House Biden was asked by reporters 'What are the chances of a Gaza ceasefire? Biden: "None. No possibility." Any update on hostages? Biden: "We're still optimistic."
