During a trip to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Wednesday, U.S. President Joe Biden commented on the ongoing efforts to secure a deal between Israel and Hamas for the release of hostages held in Gaza.
Biden expressed skepticism about the prospects of a swift agreement, stating, “We’re pushing.” Concurrently, discussions involving the heads of the U.S. CIA, Israel’s Mossad, and Qatar’s prime minister are underway as part of collective efforts to facilitate the release of more hostages.
