U.S. President Joe Biden Refuses To Call For Ceasefire In Gaza

U.S. President Joe Biden has defended his refusal to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, claiming that it is "not realistic" to expect Israel to stop the war.

Speaking to reporters after a summit meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Biden said that the threat of Hamas could not be ignored.

"Hamas has already said publicly that they plan on attacking Israel again like they did before, cutting babies' heads off, burning women and children alive. So the idea that they're going to just stop and not do anything is not realistic."

Reports around Hamas beheadings of 40 infants remain unconfirmed, although widely shared on social media.
