Biden says he does not believe there will be 'all-out war' in Middle East

President Joe Biden said on Thursday he did not believe there is going to be an "all-out war" in the Middle East, a region that has been on edge amid Israel's campaign in Gaza and Lebanon and escalation of the US ally's tensions with Iran.

The president said that such a war could be avoided, but more needed to be done to ensure that.
