US Vice President Kamala Harris called on the Israeli government to implement an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, and demanded that Israel increase the flow of aid to alleviate what it described as “inhumane” conditions and a “humanitarian catastrophe” among the Palestinian people.
In a speech during a visit to the city of Selma, Alabama, on Sunday evening, Harris said, “People are starving in Gaza. The conditions are inhumane, and our common humanity obliges us to take action.”
She added, "The Israeli government must do more to significantly increase the flow of aid. There are no excuses."
Harris also urged Hamas to accept an agreement to release detainees, which would implement a six-week ceasefire and allow more aid to flow, according to the US Vice President.
An Israeli newspaper reported that Israel boycotted ceasefire talks in Gaza on Sunday after Hamas rejected its demand to send a complete list containing the names of detainees who are still alive.
Since October 7, the Israeli aggression against Gaza has resulted in tens of thousands of victims, most of them children and women, according to Palestinian and UN data, which necessitated Israel’s appearance, for the first time since 1948, before the International Court of Justice. On charges of committing "genocide".
