US President Joe Biden says he is working “day and night” to free hostages held in Gaza and bring peace to the region, opening a speech at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington DC.
“Not only do we pray for peace, we are actively working for peace, security, dignity for the Israeli people, and the Palestinian people,” he says.
“I’m engaged in this day and night… to find the means to bring the hostages home, to ease the humanitarian crisis, to bring peace to Gaza and Israel, an enduring peace with two states for two peoples,” he adds.
