Rep. Dingell on Gaza: It Would Be Outrageous for Further Innocent Civilians To Be Killed

EXCERPT:

DINGELL: “People need to understand what is going on in Rafah right now. The population of Gaza is approximately 2.2 million people; 1.5 million of them have been forced into Rafah. We've already lost somewhere — you know, we can argue about the numbers. Nobody denies that 12,000 children have already died. You just heard the — during that interview, that Doctors Without Borders have talked about 1,000 children who have lost limbs, the number of children that don't have families. It would be outrageous for further innocent civilians to be killed. I know that the White House is working very closely with a number of other countries to make it clear that we cannot continue this loss of life. And I — I continue to talk to the White House every day, tell them how important it is. And they assure me that the president is very engaged in delivering very direct messages."
