US prepares humanitarian airlift to Gaza. The decision comes a day after the Israeli Armed Forces killed about 130 Gazans who had attacked a food convoy.
The massacre further redoubled calls for Joe Biden's government to impose a ceasefire in the war between the Islamic terrorist group Hamas and Israel since October 7. More than 30,000 people have been killed in the fighting, including some 6,000 Hamas militants and nearly 600 Israeli soldiers. In Washington, the lack of agreement is attributed to the harshness of the position of Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu.
