Oct 16, 2023

United States President Joe Biden has warned Israel that any occupation of Gaza would be a “big mistake”. Speaking in an interview on US television, Biden said he supported the creation of a humanitarian corridor for people in Gaza to leave and aid to be delivered.

Biden also said in the interview that Hamas, which launched a surprise attack in Israel on October 7, needed to be eliminated.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has told Al Jazeera Tehran will not be a bystander in the conflict, cautioning both Israel and the United States about potential substantial losses if the war between Israel and Hamas intensifies.
