The actions of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are facing increasing scrutiny, with growing claims that he is deliberately blocking peace talks in the conflict.
Adding to pressure on the leader is former US secretary of state Hillary Clinton, who has now said he “should go” over his handling of the war.
The former presidential candidate and first lady told MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight that Mr Netanyahu was to blame for the oversights that led to the Hamas attack on 7 October.
“Netanyahu should go,” she said.
“He is not a trustworthy leader. It was on his watch that the attack happened.
“He needs to go, and if he’s an obstacle to a ceasefire, if he’s an obstacle to exploring what’s to be done the day after, he absolutely needs to go.”
More than 27,708 Palestinians have been killed and over 67,000 injured by Israeli strikes, official figures from the enclave’s Hamas-run health ministry say, since Hamas killed around 1,140 people on 7 October.
