“Senate Democrats are engaged in an intraparty debate on whether to attach strings to military aid for Israel in hopes of limiting further civilian casualties in Gaza, with a vote on a foreign-aid package that also includes assistance for Ukraine and Taiwan coming to the floor as soon as next week,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“The debate within the party comes as the Biden administration is pressing Israel to modify its plans for the next phase of its campaign in Gaza to better protect civilians. The White House has faced criticism that it has given Israeli forces free rein to wage their war with Hamas.”
New York Times: “Democrats are clashing with each other and the Biden administration over whether to attach conditions, including measures to avoid civilian casualties, to a major infusion of security assistance.”
