The majority of Gaza\u2019s population \u2014\u00a0a total of about 2.3 million Palestinians \u2014\u00a0have been forced out of their homes amid ongoing violence, while hospitals and shelters deal with overcrowding and limited supplies of basic necessities. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is where it\u2019s really important that President Biden assert leadership in this moment, in this very dark hour if there\u2019s going to be any light at the end of the tunnel,\u201d Van Hollen said. \u201cYou\u2019re going to have to have a political settlement\u2026not with Hamas, obviously they\u2019re not any partner for peace. We need to end the military threat from Hamas, but you need to have Palestinians who have long accepted Israel\u2019s right to exist to be able to govern and represent the people within the Palestinian area.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>It remains unclear when Israel\u2019s campaign could end in Gaza. Herzog last week said Israel\u2019s efforts in northern Gaza could finish within weeks but declined to assert when the war could end, The Associated Press reported. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Media<\/a> Inc.
