Biden names new special envoy for Middle East humanitarian issues
Lise Grande replaced David Satterfield as the coordinator for humanitarian aid to Gaza, appointed by the Biden administration.
Grande, a former CEO and president of the U.S. Institute of Peace and UN diplomat, will now serve as special envoy for Middle East humanitarian issues.
