Biden says Netanyahu not doing enough to secure hostage deal

US President Joe Biden on Monday said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was not doing enough to secure a deal for the release of hostages taken by the Palestinian armed group Hamas on October 7.

Asked by a reporter at the White House -- where Biden was arriving for a meeting with US negotiators -- if he thought the Israeli leader was doing enough on the issue, the president responded: "No."
