U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken on Tuesday urged Israel to maximise "every possible means" to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza, saying the current situation in Gaza is unacceptable and unsustainable, Reuters reported.
Speaking before a meeting with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani at the State Department, Blinken also said there is now an opportunity to achieve an immediate ceasefire in the war between Israel and Hamas.
He noted, however, that it is Hamas's responsibility to participate in these negotiations.
