US Doesn’t Support Israeli Occupation Of Gaza- Spokesperson
US President Joe Biden does not support an Israeli military occupation of the Gaza Strip after the Israel-Hamas war ends, a White House Spokesman has said.
Biden believes “a reoccupation by Israeli Forces of Gaza is not the right thing to do”, the White House National Security Spokesperson, John Kirby, said.
The comments come a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu suggested that Israel would take control of security in Gaza after the war.
Israel would take responsibility for security for an “indefinite period” Netanyahu told ABC News.
Kirby said that “there needs to be a healthy set of conversations about what post-conflict Gaza looks like and what governance looks like”.
US President Joe Biden has previously said it would be a “mistake” for Israel to occupy Gaza.
