Internal disagreements within the US government over how the administration is dealing with Israel’s actions in Gaza has led to a steady stream of resignations. At least seven officials have resigned since October. Last week, a senior State Department official quit over a report that denied Israel has been blocking aid to Gaza. Stacy Gilbert is the former State Department employee who resigned over that report. She was a Senior Civil Military Advisor at the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration at the US Department of State.

A spokesperson for the Israeli government says Israel is ready to stop its war on Gaza to return captives. However, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reiterated that the goals of the war remain unchanged and that he wants to see Hamas destroyed. This comes after US President Joe Biden presented a three-phase ceasefire plan on Friday, with the first phase entailing a limited release of captives from Gaza. The Israeli government has banned Al Jazeera from reporting in Israel, so Imran Khan is in the Jordanian capital, Amman, with more on this.

Political scientist, Norman Finkelstein, says the US elections are often determined by Thomas A. Fergusons’s “Golden Rule”- that whichever candidate receives the most campaign contributions, wins the US presidential election. Finkelstein says that US President Joe Biden may have “fear” of losing the “Jewish billionaire” contributions, if he makes a “principled stance” in the Gaza war.

The conflict along the border has escalated, with northern Israel experiencing significant destruction, and pressure is expected to mount as the ceasefire decision […]

Hospitals in Gaza have been treating the wounded since the war began, but they have been constantly overwhelmed. Many patients have no choice but to sleep on the floor, and some require help that the hospitals are unable to provide. Due to the closure of the Rafah crossing to Egypt, patients cannot receive necessary treatment abroad. The Israeli blockade is also denying Gaza’s hospitals essential medical supplies, worsening the situation. Doctors warn that if the blockade is not lifted, many more will die, urging international organisations to pressure Israel to open the crossing and allow aid in.
