White House Says U.S. Working With U.N. to Avert Gaza Humanitarian Crisis

U.S. officials said they are working with foreign counterparts to create a corridor in Gaza for safe passage for the tens of thousands of residents trying to flee the conflict and to allow humanitarian supplies into the area. “We continue to talk to our Egyptian and Israeli allies about the importance of those things—and as well, I would add, also with the U.N.,” White House spokeswoman Olivia Dalton told reporters.
