U.S. Shares Aid Group Locations with Israel to Prevent Strikes

The Biden administration has been providing Israel with the locations of humanitarian groups in Gaza for weeks in an effort to prevent strikes against their facilities. However, Israel has continued to target these sites, including hospitals, leading to the destruction of buildings and the blocking of critical supplies. It is unclear if the U.S. has compiled a formal "no-strike" list, but officials have been transmitting coordinates of aid groups to the Israeli government. The ongoing bombardment of humanitarian facilities raises questions about the effectiveness of U.S. influence over Israel. Aid groups are struggling to provide care to patients, and the U.N. notification system for coordinating humanitarian efforts needs improvement.
