US President Joe Biden indicated Monday he was opposed to Israeli ground operations in Lebanon and called for a ceasefire, as tensions spiraled after the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.
“I’m more aware than you might know and I’m comfortable with them stopping. We should have a ceasefire now,” Biden told reporters when he was asked if he was aware of reports of Israeli plans for a limited operation, and if he was comfortable with one going ahead.
