Axios reports escalating tensions between the United States, Israel, and Hamas after negotiations over a prisoner exchange agreement faltered and the UN Security Council (UNSC) passed a resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
Israel recalled its delegation from Qatar following the breakdown in negotiations, with accusations exchanged between Tel Aviv and Washington over who is responsible for the impasse. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled an Israeli delegation's visit to Washington, exacerbating the already strained relationship with the Biden administration.
The UNSC resolution, backed by all permanent members except the US, prompted Israel to accuse President Biden's administration of emboldening Hamas. Netanyahu's office blamed Hamas for the stalled talks, citing the UNSC resolution as a contributing factor.
In response, the US rejected Israel's claims, with senior officials describing Netanyahu's statement as inaccurate and unfair. They reiterated the US's commitment to securing a deal to free the remaining hostages held by Hamas.
Despite the tensions, sources indicate optimism from the US, Qatar, and Egypt, who view the current situation as a "pause" and anticipate talks could resume in the coming days. (ILKHA)
