Vice President Kamala Harris said she would 'always stand up for Israel's right to defend itself' but that the 'suffering in Gaza' must end as she accepted the Democratic presidential nomination Thursday.

President Biden and I are working to end this war, such that Israel is secure, the hostages are released, the suffering in Gaza ends and the Palestinian people can realize their right to dignity, security, freedom and self-determination.
