President of the United States Joe Biden and the King of Jordan Abdullah II have had a phone conversation on Friday about efforts to reach a ceasefire and a hostage deal in Gaza.
According to a statement issued by the White House, in the conversation, Biden presented to the king of Jordan a plan “to increase humanitarian aid during the ceasefire”. In addition, there was also a discussion about the reforms of the Palestinian self-government in the West Bank occupied by Israel.
