US President says Israel has been ‘cooperating,’ agreed to ‘rational’ ceasefire deal, it will be seen in the next few days if Hamas agrees to this deal.
US President Joe Biden said today (Tuesday) that an agreement on a new hostage deal is “in Hamas’ hands.”
“The hostage deal is in the hands of Hamas right now,” Biden told reporters while boarding Air Force One. The Israelis have been cooperating. There’s an offer out there that’s rational. We’ll know in a couple of days if it’s going to happen.”
He stated that a ceasefire was necessary now because if the war continued into Ramadan, which begins next week, the result would be “very, very dangerous.”
