Senate Overwhelmingly Kills Resolution Seeking Information About Israeli Actions in Gaza – https://www.mediaite.com/politics/senate-overwhelmingly-kills-resolution-seeking-information-about-israeli-actions-in-gaza/
“The Senate voted on Tuesday night to table a resolution that would require the Department of State to produce a report about Israel’s actions in Gaza since launching its military campaign in the territory. Its aim would have been to determine whether Israel has committed human rights violations.
Israel has been carrying out airstrikes and conducting a ground invasion in Gaza since the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks in which Hamas fighters killed 1,200 Israelis and abducted 240 others. Since that time, more than 20,000 Gazans have been killed and 85% of Gaza’s population has been displaced. Hundreds of thousands are reportedly starving in the territory of 2.3 million.
President Joe Biden and his administration have repeatedly urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to work to minimize civilian casualties, but officials have expressed frustration. One Biden official said this week, “The president’s patience is running out.””
