"Global Pressure Mounts for Gaza Ceasefire as US Stands Alone"

The international community is increasingly calling for a ceasefire in Gaza due to the growing civilian death toll and humanitarian crisis. This shift in global opinion has put pressure on Israel and its closest ally, the US, which is supplying and backing the Israeli offensive. While global support for a ceasefire has grown, the Israeli government and the US are expected to maintain their positions due to their view of the conflict as existential and their longstanding relationship. The US has not taken steps to pressure Israel, allowing it to continue its military campaign despite global criticism. The impact of changing global support has not yet affected US actions, but the Biden administration has moderated its tone on Israel. Domestic pressures, including within Biden's own party, and growing support for a ceasefire among US voters, are factors that may influence the US's approach to the issue.
