Senate Rejects Israel Human Rights Measure | Aid Debate Intensifies

Senators voted to kill a resolution ordering the assessment of Israel's human rights violations, sparking a Democratic rift over unfettered aid. The Senate's recent resolution threatened to freeze all U.S. security aid to Israel unless a human rights report is produced within 30 days. The debate underscores the divide on fulfilling President Biden's request for additional military aid to Israel. Bernie Sanders' resolution, part of several measures proposed by Senate progressives, aims to address concerns about Israel's conduct in the Gaza conflict.
