<p data-end="61" data-start="0">During the visit, Ben Gvir met House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, who, according to a statement, voiced support for the minister’s policies.</p>
<p data-end="61" data-start="0">“They expressed support for my very clear position on how to act in Gaza and that the food and aid depots should be bombed,” Ben-Gvir posted on X, claiming such strikes would build pressure to secure the release of Israeli captives.</p>
