Senate Democrats are imploring President Donald Trump's administration to step up its role in addressing suffering and starvation in Gaza.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said the Hamas militant group had become difficult to deal with in recent days, but he was talking with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about "various plans" to free hostages still held in the enclave.
