Democratic presidential candidate and US Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday said Israel must not reoccupy the Gaza Strip when the nearly year-old war on Gaza ends, The National reported.
Ms Harris told the National Association of Black Journalists in Philadelphia that there must be a ceasefire in Gaza, and a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is the only way to bring peace to the Middle East.
“We have seen with horror, the images coming out of Gaza, and we have to take that seriously,” the Democratic presidential nominee told a panel of three journalists.
“And we have to agree that not only must we end this war, but we have to have a goal of a two-state solution because there must be stability and peace in that region.”
More than 41,200 Palestinians have been killed and 95,000 wounded in Israel’s military campaign on the strip, local health authorities say.
