Israel has made it clear to the Biden administration that it is ready for a joint investigation with the Palestinians and even with the United States.

Foreign Minister Yair Lapid spoke with a-Sheikh several times yesterday and suggested a joint investigation.

A source close to the issue noted that senior officials in the Biden administration had spoken to a-Sheikh several times and asked him to agree to a joint investigation.
