President Joe Biden addressed questions regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict during a recent press conference. One reporter asked about the Israeli evacuation plan for the 1.5 million displaced Palestinians in Rafah and the potential consequences if a ground invasion were to occur without adequate measures to protect civilians.
In response, President Biden revealed that he had engaged in extensive conversations with the Prime Minister of Israel, urging for a temporary ceasefire and emphasizing the importance of evacuating prisoners and hostages. He expressed hope that a temporary ceasefire would be implemented to facilitate the release of hostages, including American citizens who are being held captive. The President stressed the need to avert a massive land invasion by Israel and expressed his expectations that such an invasion would not occur.
