‘It is time to get this deal done,’ says Harris after Netanyahu meeting | VOA News

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris described her meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as "frank and constructive" during a press conference on Thursday, reaffirming her "unwavering commitment" to Israel's security.
U.S. President Joe Biden on Thursday brought Israel's leader into the calm eye of America's political storm, as the two tried to hash out a lasting peace to silence the suffering in Gaza. But it was Biden's vice president who took a sharper tone with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying she had "serious concern" about the scale of human suffering in the besieged exclave.
Vice President Kamala Harris, who has been campaigning this week after Biden stepped out of the presidential race, also stepped ahead of the president's usually measured rhetoric. She began by echoing Biden's sentiment that Israel has a right to defend itself and urged Netanyahu to accept a cease-fire plan. And then:
"I also expressed with the prime minister my serious concern about the scale of human suffering in Gaza, including the death of far too many innocent civilians," she said. "And I made clear my serious concern about the dire humanitarian situation there with over 2 million people facing high levels of food insecurity and half a million people facing catastrophic levels of acute food insecurity. What has happened in Gaza over the past nine months is devastating."
