Overview

• Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accused France, the UK, and Canada of supporting Hamas after they threatened 'concrete action' unless Israel ends its Gaza offensive and lifts aid restrictions.
• Israel launched 'Operation Gideon's Chariots' earlier this month to fully occupy Gaza, resulting in significant casualties and widespread destruction.
• International allies, including the UK, France, and Canada, have criticized Israel's actions, with some countries suspending trade talks and imposing sanctions on Israeli entities.
• The United States, while remaining Israel's largest supporter, has privately urged Netanyahu to wind down the war and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza.
• Netanyahu's political future faces uncertainty as international pressure mounts, while he also contends with legal challenges, including an ICC arrest warrant for alleged crimes against humanity.
