Biden has become increasingly public about his frustration with the Netanyahu government’s unwillingness to open more land crossings for critically needed aid to make its way into Gaza.
In his address on Thursday, he called on the Israelis to do more to alleviate the suffering even as they try to eliminate Hamas.
Biden said: “To Israel, I say this humanitarian assistance cannot be a secondary consideration or a bargaining chip.”
The President announced that the US military would help establish a temporary pier aimed at boosting the amount of aid getting into the territory. Last week, the US military began air dropping aid into Gaza.
Biden said the temporary pier, ”will enable a massive increase in humanitarian assistance getting into Gaza.”
