Axios: Netanyahu was surprised by Biden's request to stop fighting outside the framework of the exchange deal. Biden warned Netanyahu that the US administration would not be able to support him unless Israel changed its course in Gaza.

Biden did not specify the manifestations of the loss of American support and did not mention the possibility of halting arms shipments to Israel. Israeli media said that the mini-ministerial council decided to increase humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip immediately, and agreed to open the Beit Hanoun crossing for the first time since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on the Strip.
