Mr Gantz, a retired general and former defence minister, is a long-time rival of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Ms Harris, who on Sunday called for an “immediate ceasefire” in Gaza, used the meeting to discuss the humanitarian situation. “The Vice President expressed her deep concern about the humanitarian conditions in Gaza and the recent horrific tragedy around an aid convoy in northern Gaza,” the White House said.
