The White House says that a three-year-old American whose parents were killed by Hamas is among the hostages in Gaza.
The US says there are 10 Americans still unaccounted for since the attack.
According to a readout of the call between Mr Biden and Sheikh Tamim released by the White House, the president "condemned unequivocally the holding of hostages by Hamas, including many young children, one of whom is a three-year old American citizen toddler".
Both leaders said "all hostages must be released without further delay".

I think toddlers should never, ever be put in a situation like this because this could lead to severe trauma when they grow up if they even survive it. Children should never be a tool in an adult's war.
@SovereignCalGreen6mos6MO
In Bosnian war, a study showed that children who were exposed to violence had significantly higher levels of post-traumatic stress disorder and depression later in life.
@9GXGFKM6mos6MO
Whether the victims of genocide are American, or Israeli, or Palestinian, we must do all we can to help them. War is irrational and incredibly disastrous.
@9GX7WVL6mos6MO
I think that it's awful that there are toddlers being held hostage in Gaza, they are too young for that.
@9GXCCR56mos6MO
I believe this topic is sensitive and the lives of young children should not be lost because they are innocent.
@9GXHX45Peace and Freedom6mos6MO
It shows how inhuman Israel soldiers can be and how the people are being treated. They are willing to do anything in order to continue the war.
@9GXLTGHRepublican6mos6MO
It's sad enough there are US hostages in Gaza, it's even worse that one of them is a toddler
@9GXNG2Q6mos6MO
all of the above... It's sad enough there are US hostages in Gaza, it's even worse that one of them is a toddler
I think that there is no correct answer and bombing definitely isnt. peaceful talks is the best way to solve
US needs to stay out of foreign affairs until they become domestic.
@9GXT6C96mos6MO
It's idealistic to be in favour of a ceasefire but still the most moral position. War effects the citizens of a country at a generational level, and the governments and it's land share less burden over time.
@9GX6SZJ6mos6MO
The Israel attack on Palestine is genocide and a cease fire needs to be instated
@9GX8NTC6mos6MO
The U.S needs to do something faster or else other neighboring countries could fall due to domino theory
@9GXHQZ76mos6MO
The cruel treatment of the people in Goza must be stopped
@9GXSCV46mos6MO
I think its horrible toddlers are being held hostage.
@9GXFW3X6mos6MO
I think we need to help US citizens wherever they are!
@9GXDVRC6mos6MO
hamas needs to be destroyed and israel is doing the right thing. Israel has tried to get gaza citizens out but they cant because hamas is evil and using their own people as human shields and purposely bombing civilians in israel
@9GXYQY36mos6MO
These wars are not necessary and can be stopped

@9GXVPQG6mos6MO
little kids should not be held hostage because they dont control what goes on in the world and their life.
@9GXKKJT6mos6MO
Why would they need to have a toddler hostage. Kid has no power of anything.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
How do you feel about the ethical implications of children being involved in international conflicts, particularly in situations like the hostage crisis involving a three-year-old American in Gaza?
@9GXXSLM6mos6MO
That I really feel bad for the little kids and I really don't know what to say.
@9GXXHCGPeace and Freedom6mos6MO
4,500 children have died in Gaza in just the past month. It's time to think about them.
@9GXZ8L56mos6MO
How the hell do we let a toddler get captured and held hostage.
@9GXCP4S6mos6MO
It's time to declare war on the terrorist group.
@9GXCFZL6mos6MO
how they are keeping America citizens hostage, like their planning something
As of current, Israel has no right to continue to invade Palestine
@9GXVNB7Peace and Freedom6mos6MO
I think that kids should not b e getting taken because that is not fair for then and they do not deserve that at all.
@9GXW43T6mos6MO
In my opinion i agree with most statements that are there.
@9GXSCDL6mos6MO
Why are they taking hostages that have no affiliation to the conflict.
@9GXTWMB6mos6MO
Very disturbing and see down to earth what is happening in the world right now.
@9GXYSN76mos6MO
The fact that our government does not have people in that state getting our people out including that three year old child whose parents were murdered is ridiculous. They are making a mistake not sending troops in.
