Israel warned by U.S. of potential restrictions on military aid due to worsening Gaza humanitarian crisis


The Biden administration has issued a warning to Israel that unless the humanitarian situation in Gaza improves within the next 30 days, the U.S. may restrict military assistance to the country. In a letter sent to Israeli officials, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin emphasized the need to assess whether Israel is impeding the transport of U.S. humanitarian aid to Gaza, potentially leading to a halt in additional Foreign Military Financing. The warning comes amid a deteriorating situation in Gaza, with a high number of casualties reported, and pressure from various organizations and advocacy groups to end Israel’s assault on Gaza. The U.S. has continued to provide assistance to Israel, including sending an advanced anti-missile system and troops, but progressive members of the Democratic Party and organizations like IfNotNow have been calling on the Biden administration to halt arms sales to Israel. The administration’s decision to issue this warning reflects growing pressure from the American public, including a majority of American Jews, to leverage U.S. military funding to push for a ceasefire and prevent further loss of Palestinian lives in the region.
