"They have a point": Biden says of pro-Palestinian protesters

• For the first time since the Oct. 7 attack, Biden also said he has a "red line" for the Israeli military operation in Gaza, indicating his patience with the Netanyahu government is thinning.

State of play: Three protesters interrupted his speech on health care in North Carolina, yelling, "What about the health care in Gaza?"

• "Everybody deserves health care," Biden responded from the stage.
• The three women could be heard saying that hospitals in Gaza are being bombed and accusing Biden of being "complicit in genocide."
• "Be patient with them," Biden said as the protesters were escorted out. "They have a point. We need to get a lot more care into Gaza."

Zoom out: Biden announced this month that he ordered the U.S. military to open up a maritime route for humanitarian assistance to Gaza.

• The plan to establish the temporary port in Gaza has been the most significant U.S. humanitarian initiative since the Israel-Hamas war began.
