Biden administration officials are pressing Israel to ensure the Kerem Shalom border crossing with Gaza remains open, the Kan public broadcaster reports, after protesters — among them relatives of hostages held by Hamas — blocked trucks of aid from reaching the enclave for a second straight day.
According to the report, the US officials called for the crossing to continue operating as usual and said Israel must ensure aid continues flowing into Gaza, without specifically referring to the protests.
