The conflict between Israel and Gaza, particularly in the city of Rafah, has strained the relationship between the United States and Israel. President Biden's decision to withhold arms shipments to Israel if a full-scale invasion of Rafah occurs has caused concern in the Israeli government.

Despite the US threat, Israeli leaders have stated that they will proceed with the operation. The UN has warned of critically low supplies and a state of full-blown famine in Gaza, while tens of thousands have already fled Rafah.

The Biden administration is urging Israel to do more to protect Palestinian civilians and minimize collateral damage. Muslim and Arab American leaders express frustration over broken communication channels with the White House regarding US policy on the conflict, demanding a stronger stance against it.

The conflict has also raised debates in Germany and other countries regarding their support and arms deliveries to Israel. Hamas is under pressure but continues to fight for its political survival, emphasizing the need for a lasting ceasefire and an end to the occupation.

The situation remains tense, with negotiations for a ceasefire and hostage deal put on hold due to anger over Israel's seizure of the Rafah border crossing.
