Progressive Democrats in the House on Friday called on the Biden administration to take steps to limit civilian casualties in the Gaza Strip after Israel’s military ordered an evacuation of the northern part of the enclave ahead of planned operations.
The letter addressed to President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, signed by 55 House members, comes as fellow Democrats condemned a number of statements their colleagues have made in the wake of 1,500 Hamas terrorists invading and attacking Israel from Gaza on Oct. 7.
