US President Biden labels Netanyahu's handling of the war in Gaza a ‘mistake’

US President Joe Biden labelled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s handling of the war in Gaza a “mistake.”
During an interview aired on Tuesday night on US Spanish-language network Univision, Mr Biden said what Mr Netanyahu was doing in Gaza is “a mistake. I don’t agree with his approach.”
He said Gaza should have “total access to all food and medicine” for the next six to eight weeks and ramped up pressure on the Israelis to agree to a ceasefire.
