Former CIA Director on Biden’s Israel visit
Former Director of the CIA General David Petraeus says that President Biden's upcoming trip to the Middle East will give him the chance to ask some difficult questions "behind closed doors". Speaking to Today's Justin Webb, General Petraeus said: "Going to Israel shows how important this is to the President, and to the US." The US says that President Biden will travel to Israel on Wednesday and discuss how the country will conduct its operations in a way that "minimises civilian casualties".
