Kamala‍‍`s presidential campaign delegation met with American Muslim and Arab leaders to win back Muslim support.

Kamala Harris wants to win back Democrats who are angered by U.S. support for Israeli military incursions into the Palestinian territories of Gaza and south and central Lebanon. News from NDTV.

Phil Gordon, the presidential candidate‍‍`s national security adviser, told Muslim community leaders in a virtual meeting that the Democrat (Biden) administration supports a ceasefire in Gaza, a diplomatic solution in Lebanon and restoring stability to the Israeli-occupied West Bank, the vice president‍‍`s office said.

"Such promises from Harris‍‍` office were not enough," said Ali Dagher, a Lebanese-American attorney and community leader. It‍‍`s too little, too late.‍‍` But Dager himself did not attend the meeting.

Kamala, a Democrat, will face Republican candidate and former President Donald Trump in November.

President Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election with a majority of Muslim and Arab voters. However, Muslim support for the Democrats fell sharply after nearly a year of Israeli attacks on Gaza.
