READ HERE: Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas categorically rejected the removal of Gaza’s inhabitants from their land in a phone call with US President Joe Biden on Saturday, Abbas’ office confirmed in a statement.
Biden pledged to support efforts by the Palestinian Authority, which controls the West Bank, to bring much-needed humanitarian assistance to Hamas-controlled Gaza, according to a White House summary of the call.
The US president also claimed his administration has been working with the UN, Egypt, Jordan, and Israel “to ensure humanitarian supplies reach civilians in Gaza,” according to the summary, though Israel itself has pledged no electricity, water, or food will enter the territory until the hostages taken by Hamas last Saturday are returned.
