U.S. President Joe Biden stated today, Wednesday, that he "does not expect a deal soon between Israel and Hamas for the release of hostages held in Gaza." Speaking during a press event in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Biden mentioned, "we are pushing." Efforts are being made to arrange the release of more hostages, and the head of the CIA, the head of the Israeli Mossad, and the Prime Minister of Qatar are expected to meet to discuss the issue. In a separate context, Joe Biden referred to his predecessor, former President Donald Trump, as a "rebel" because, according to the current American leader, he supported the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021. The White House leader clarified his remarks, stating, "He certainly supported the rebellion, there is no doubt about that."
