A senior State Department official, Andrew Miller, who has been dedicated to matters concerning the war in Gaza, is set to leave his position in the coming days. Miller currently oversees the Israeli and Palestinian portfolio at the department but is departing for personal reasons, as confirmed by sources familiar with his decision.
Miller's departure comes at a critical juncture as the Israel-Hamas conflict enters its ninth month, with the Biden administration expressing growing frustration with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel's handling of the war while also defending the country on the international stage.
