President Joe Biden supports a “pause” in the fighting between Israel and Hamas to allow hostages to be released, he told reporters during a press conference on Nov. 1.

The president made the comments after he was questioned by a female protester, who claimed to be a rabbi, during the campaign fundraiser event in Minnesota.
