While acknowledging some progress in President Biden's recent statements, Jayapal stressed that more decisive measures are required to alleviate the dire conditions in Gaza.
She highlighted the pressing issues, such as the imminent threat of starvation for 500,000 people and the high number of casualties, particularly among women and children.
