US President Joe Biden on Thursday called for a "pause" in the war in Gaza to allow more time for the release of prisoners. John Kirby, White House strategic communications coordinator, said Thursday in support of the Zionist regime's crimes against the people of Gaza: "According to US President Joe Biden, Israeli actions in the Gaza Strip do not violate international law." John Kirby Democratic Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois also called for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, but said the ceasefire should be the beginning of the release of all prisoners. Dick Durbin Democratic Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut said in the US Senate on Thursday evening: "Israel's friends must know that the method they have adopted has harmed civilians at an unacceptable level."

Chris Murphy Murphy called on Israel to reconsider its approach. There has been a late change in position by several US officials to support a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip to free Israeli hostages from Hamas forces, while many other officials in the United States continue to support the killing and genocide of Palestinians. Pentagon spokesman Pat Ryder Pentagon spokesman Pat Ryder said at a news conference: "We do not support a ceasefire that gives Hamas sufficient time to regroup. It puts Israeli citizens and others at risk." Along with the support of the American authorities, many residents of this country called for an end to the genocide and an end to the killing of the Palestinian people through protests and meetings. To date, the Zionist regime has killed at least 9,610 civilians living in the Gaza Strip using one-ton trench bombs and banned weapons such as phosphorus bombs, and injured more than 32,000 people, the Ministry of Health reports, with many people missing and buried under the rubble of destroyed buildings.
