Channel 12 reports this.
“Too many innocent Palestinians have been killed,” Harris said.
On the issue of arms supplies to Israel, Harris stressed her commitment to defending Israel and added that her position on this issue remains unchanged. She also recalled the need to reach an agreement that would allow for the release of hostages and a ceasefire, emphasizing that the solution to the war could be the creation of two states in which both Israelis and Palestinians would feel safe, with dignity and freedom.
Harris also noted that if she becomes president, she will renew efforts to pass immigration legislation. At the same time, she denied rumors about a possible ban on oil production, emphasizing that such steps are not in her plans.
Kamala Harris also noted that if she wins the election, she is ready to include Republicans in her administration.
