Pressure on Netanyahu: What response as US lifts Gaza ceasefire veto?

THE DEBATE © FRANCE 24

With the war between Israel and Hamas now in its sixth month, the needle is moving. But by how much? For the first time, the United States has lifted its veto on a UN resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. In past conflicts, whenever Washington has called time, Israel has bended. But what's to say this story follows the pattern?

For residents of Gaza, Day 172 of the war offers no respite, with renewed air strikes. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is pushing back against Washington's growing pressure. So what's the Biden administration’s next move? And can we call this a turning point?

Produced by Alessandro Xenos, Rebecca Gnignati and Juliette Brown.
