Hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza are heading south in vehicles and on foot. The Israeli military said it’s readying a “wide range” of offensive plans.
CAIRO — Biden administration officials signaled Sunday that they were trying to mitigate the humanitarian consequences of an expected Israeli ground invasion of the Gaza Strip, even as the Palestinian death toll from airstrikes continued to rise and aid earmarked for the enclave remained stuck in Egypt. National security adviser Jake Sullivan, during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union,” said people in Gaza deserved “access to water and medicine and food.
President Biden, posting on X, formerly Twitter, wrote Sunday: “We must not lose sight of the fact that the overwhelming majority of Palestinians had nothing to do with Hamas’s appalling attacks, and are suffering as a result of them,” referring to the Palestinian militant group’s surprise incursions into Israel last week, which killed 1,300 civilians and soldiers.
