On Sunday, Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., stated that the Vice President Kamala Harris' team has shown interest in exploring a "new approach" regarding the current U.S.-Israel policy.

Khanna stated on "Meet the Press" that he has urged Harris to uphold U.S. laws which prohibit providing unconditional aid to foreign allies.

The California lawmaker stated that the team has expressed openness to a new direction and look, anyone examining the policy will see hostages who are still not released. The war has lasted almost 11 months, and over 40,000 people have died in Gaza. A new policy direction is needed to end the war.

Planet Chronicle Digital's request for comment from the Harris campaign on Labor Day was not immediately responded to.

On Saturday, a Washington Post report indicated that it is probable that Harris will perform a comprehensive examination of the current Israel policy.

According to sources close to Harris' thought process, the vice president may be considering imposing new restrictions on certain forms of aid to Israel.

Netanyahu urged the Biden administration to renew its plan to provide Israel with weapons in June.

During a press conference in Jordan, Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced $404 million in new aid to Palestinians, bringing the total amount of humanitarian aid sent by the U.S. into Gaza to more than $674 million since the conflict with Israel began, according to the U.S. Agency for International Development.

On Monday, President Biden and Vice President Harris will meet with the U.S. hostage deal negotiating team in the White House Situation Room to discuss the recent murder of six hostages, including American citizen Hersh Goldberg-Polin, by Hamas on Saturday.

The meeting at the White House is aimed at discussing strategies to achieve a deal that ensures the release of the remaining hostages. The meeting is not open to the media.

Since Oct. 7, a war has been ongoing in the Middle East, initiated by Hamas' attacks on Israel that resulted in over 1,100 deaths, prompting Israel to declare war. At the start of the conflict, an estimated 257 Israeli hostages were trapped in Gaza. Currently, 101 hostages remain in Gaza, with 66 of them believed to be alive, including four American citizens.
