US President Joe Biden says he would be talking Monday with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the bloodshed in Israel.

“I will be speaking with the prime minister in an hour and I’ll be able to talk to you after that,” he tells reporters at the White House, when asked whether he would join other international calls for a ceasefire in Israel.
