House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries slammed President Donald Trump’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war and called for more humanitarian aid to be sent to Gaza.
“During the first six months of Donald Trump’s time in office, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza has reached a breaking point, hostages are still being held by Hamas despite the President’s promise they would be released and the pre-existing ceasefire the administration inherited has been breached,” Jeffries wrote in a press release put out Friday.
He also called for the ceasefire deal under former President Joe Biden to be reinstated.
“It is imperative that humanitarian aid be surged into Gaza immediately, the remaining Israeli hostages be released and the ceasefire negotiated by the Biden administration restored,” his statement continued. “We need a just and lasting peace.”
