JAKARTA - United States (US) Vice President Kamala Harris is expected to join a phone call between President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Harris frequently joined previous phone calls between Biden and Netanyahu, including during their last conversation on August 21.

"The work we are doing diplomatically with Israeli leaders is an ongoing effort to clarify our principles, which include the need for humanitarian assistance, the need to end this war, the need for an agreement to release Israel. take hostage and create a ceasefire," Harris said in an interview with a 60 Minutes event on CBS reported by CNN, Wednesday, October 9.
