More than 100 US congressional staffers staged a walkout protest in Capitol Hill to demand a ceasefire in Gaza.
The staffers said they receive calls everyday from constituents calling for an end to violence but Congress leaders are not listening to the people.
More than 10,500 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since during Israel’s assault on the besieged strip.
On Thursday, more than 500 alumni of Biden's 2020 presidential campaign published a letter imploring the president to "call for a cease-fire, hostage exchange, and de-escalation, and take concrete steps to address the conditions of occupation, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing at the root of the horrific violence we are witnessing now."
