We represent a coalition of Biden-Harris
administration political appointees and
civil servants, positioned across the domestic
and foreign policy spheres, working in
federal agencies, departments, independent
agencies and the White House, Via open letter signed by Biden administration staff.
We call on President Biden to urgently
demand a ceasefire; and to call for
de-escalation of the current conflict by
securing the immediate release of the Israeli
hostages and arbitrarily detained Palestinians;
the restoration of water, fuel, electricity
and other basic services; and the passage
of adequate humanitarian aid to the Gaza strip, Via open letter signed by Biden administration staff.

of adequate humanitarian aid to the Gaza strip, Via open letter signed by Biden administration staff.
The open letter's signatories stem from
over 30 federal departments and agencies.
.
The effort was led by two administration
staff members who requested anonymity
due to fear of retaliation for opposing
the administration's position.
Signatories also reportedly remained anonymous because of the same concerns.
.
Every day, you’re going in to work for this
administration, then you’re going to look
at your phone, you’re going to see the
suffering that you kind of feel like you’re
causing … a lot of people are no longer
comfortable being silent, no longer
comfortable being complacent in a way, Biden administration staff members, to NBC News.
NBC News reports that congressional staff has also
asked Congress to demand a cease-fire because of "antisemitism, anti-Muslim and anti-Palestinian sentiment on the rise nationwide.".
It’s unfortunate that we’re at this point.
Having hundreds and thousands of people
come together within this administration
and within Congress and say we are calling
for a cease-fire, something that’s so basic
to just end human suffering, Biden administration staff members, to NBC News
Hamas criticised US President Joe Biden on Sunday for linking a Gaza cease-fire to the release of Israelis held captive by the Palestinian group. Biden stated on Saturday that a cease-fire in Gaza could occur as soon as “tomorrow” if Hamas released Israelis in its custody. Hamas deemed this stance as a step backward from the outcomes of previous negotiations. They noted that their approval of a proposal, facilitated by mediators from Egypt and Qatar, had been done with the knowledge of the United States.

US President Joe Biden has directly offered a ceasefire to Hamas, stressing that the decision now lies with the group. Biden indicates that the ceasefire could be implemented as early as tomorrow if Hamas releases its hostages. Additionally, Biden extends an offer to Israel, providing valuable intelligence on Hamas leaders' whereabouts if Israel refrains from a major operation in Rafah. The US also pledges assistance to Israel in erecting large shelters for Palestinians evacuated from Rafah. However, Biden issues a warning to Israel, stating that the supply of artillery shells and weapons could be halted if it proceeds with an attack on Rafah. Despite multiple rounds of indirect negotiations, Hamas and Israel have yet to reach a ceasefire agreement.

Israeli warplanes launched a series of new airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, resulting in the deaths of numerous civilians, including children, in the embattled Palestinian enclave. According to reports from medical sources cited by the Palestinian Wafa news agency on Tuesday, 14 individuals were killed in overnight bombings targeting a three-story house owned by the Karaja family, situated south of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. Tragically, children were among those killed in the strike, which also left several others wounded.

The Iraqi Resistance has launched another attack in Israel, targeting the Eilat Port with a new kamikaze drone. Claiming responsibility for the strike, the group stated it was in support of Gaza. This marks the first time the resistance group has used the Al-Arfad suicide drones, which bear resemblance to the Yemeni armed forces' Sammad line of attack drone. Previously relying on its own version of the Shahed-101 drone, the resistance released a video capturing the moment the drone struck the target in Eilat. However, details regarding the location of impact and casualties remain undisclosed. The Islamic Resistance in Iraq has been increasingly staging such attacks on Israeli targets, particularly since the Israeli offensive in Rafah, despite prior warnings.

An Indian UN worker lost his life in Gaza after a targeted attack on a UN vehicle in Rafah, marking the first international casualty in the Israel-Hamas conflict. The incident highlights the risks faced by humanitarian workers in conflict zones. UN Secretary-General António Guterres condemned the attack, emphasising the need to protect humanitarian workers. Indian UN representative Ruchira Kamboj condemned civilian casualties and emphasised adherence to international law. The attack follows the UN's backing of Palestinian membership bid, with 143 countries, including India, voting for recognition, prompting a call for reconsideration by the Security Council after a US veto last month.
