More than twenty-thousand children and their family members in Gaza have been killed and millions are suffering without access to food, water, medical care, or safe shelter. Without an immediate humanitarian pause and the establishment of a regional ceasefire among all parties, this war could spread throughout the region. Humanitarian aid is urgently needed in Gaza, as is clarity about the strategic objectives for achieving peace and long-term stability. Global leaders must use the actions taken today to build a foundation for lasting peace in the future. “I continue to urge President Biden and Secretary Blinken to detail the administration’s strategic objectives for achieving de-escalation and stability in the region, and to work to establish a ceasefire via regional engagement and in cooperation with international humanitarian organizations.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T01:14:16Z |
