In a whirlwind of events, an Axios report suggests an emerging rift within the heart of the U.S. administration over mounting Palestinian casualties in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This anonymous source quoted National Security Advisor clearing the air with the Israeli Prime Minister, stating that the escalated intensity of the conflict in Gaza will need to transition to a low-phase combat mode in weeks rather than months.
However, U.S. officials rebuke these allegations, affirming that there was no attached timeline to the conversation but rather inspections, advice, and inquiries. This comes alongside the Advisor's affirmation that the U.S. engagement in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is far from passive.
