President Joe Biden is expected to speak by phone with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday for the first time since an Israeli airstrike killed multiple people working with Chef Jose Andres’s World Central Kitchen in Gaza.

White House officials had previously told reporters that Biden told Andres in a call earlier this week that he was “heartbroken” by the deaths.
