Global Criticism Mounts as Israel Faces Isolation Over Gaza Conflict

The U.S. has remained silent following the International Court of Justice's order for Israel to halt its offensive in Rafah, contrasting its vocal stance on Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The Biden administration maintains that Israel's actions are limited and aimed at combating Hamas, despite growing international condemnation and humanitarian concerns. The ICJ ruling, though not immediately enforceable, has intensified global criticism and isolated the U.S. and Israel diplomatically. Efforts for a temporary truce to facilitate humanitarian aid and hostage release continue amid the escalating crisis.
