U.S. Secretary of Defense stressed the need to increase humanitarian aid to Gaza after the extension of Gaza truce for two additional days.

This came during a telephone call between U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and his Israeli counterpart, Yoav Gallant, to discuss the latest developments regarding the release of prisoners and the cessation of Israeli army operations in Gaza Strip. 

Austin also called on government and non-governmental actors to avoid escalating the current conflict, and he provided an update on U.S. efforts to protect its forces and interests throughout the Middle East.
