New Light has emerged between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Trump.

On Sunday, Netanyahu reasserted this claim.

Israel is presented as though we are applying a campaign of starvation in Gaza.

What a bold face lie.

By Monday, Trump was among the Western leaders rejecting that claim.

That's real starvation stuff. I see it. And you can't fake that.

President Trump joined British Prime Minister Kier Starmor during a visit to Scotland and said the crisis is evident.

Those children look very hungry, but we're giving a lot of money and a lot of food, and other nations are now stepping up.

I know that this nation is right here.

It's a humanitarian crisis.

It's an absolute catastrophe.

And the humanitarian crisis has only intensified after ceasefire talks broke down again last week. Trump said he thought a ceasefire

was still possible. I told Israel. I told Bibi that you're going to have to now maybe do it a

different way. Trump said the U.S. would work with its European partners to address the crisis in Gaza

and that the U.S. would set up centers with, quote,

no boundaries where people could walk in for food. But consider this. Even as global outrage and

assistance grows, aid agencies say only a total ceasefire will allow all the necessary aid to get

to those who desperately need it in Gaza.

After the break, we'll hear from NPR reporters on the ground.

We're getting into the nitty-gritty of what government does with things like trade, taxes, immigration, and health care.
