Representative Nancy Pelosi, along with dozens of congressional Democrats, urged President Biden and Secretary of State Blinken to halt weapons transfers to Israel due to international criticism of Israel’s military assault on Gaza. Support from Pelosi signals a shift in the Democratic Party’s view on the issue, as the Gaza health ministry reports over 33,000 deaths and widespread hunger in the region. The letter also called for an investigation into an Israeli airstrike that killed aid workers. Biden has warned Israel to do more to protect civilians or the U.S. will change its policy, amidst looming famine warnings in Gaza.
