In the midst of the escalating tensions in Gaza, the Biden administration has engaged various Israeli officials, urging Prime Minister Netanyahu to scale down the intense operations. On a mission to mitigate the burgeoning humanitarian crisis and reap the peace benefits across the region, the U.S has proposed a switchover to a low-intensity operation within weeks.
One of the most critical topics in these dialogues is to decide when and how to transition from the ongoing high-intensity operation. This transformation is anticipated to bring down civilian casualties, permit more humanitarian aid into Gaza, while significantly lowering the regional tensions in Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen, therefore, reducing the threat of a regional war.
