Pressure continues to mount on Benjamin Netanyahu as the US announced a new swathe of sanctions linked to Israeli settler killings of Palestinians
over his failure to prevent the 7 October massacre has thrown an uncomfortable spotlight on the Prime Minister’s continued refusal to resign – despite mounting opprobrium from both the Israeli public and international community.
He said he would remain in his position until a replacement was found. Shortly after the attack, he and others publicly said that they shouldered blame for not preventing it. The Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid welcomed Major-General Haliva’s resignation, saying it was “justified and dignified”. He added on the social media platform X: “It would be appropriate for Prime Minister Netanyahu to do the same.”
After 7 October, the IDF’s chief of staff, Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi, and Ronen Bar, director of the Shin Bet security service, both acknowledged responsibility for failing to protect Israelis but stayed on for the war in Gaza. The Israeli Prime Minister continues under intense scrutiny internationally, as Israel continues to defy UN calls for an “immediate ceasefire”, while the death toll in Gaza surpasses 34,000 Palestinians.
“I’ve been working in recent weeks against the sanctioning of Israeli citizens, including in my conversations with the American administration.”The unprecedented move by the US to target an IDF unit with sanctions comes as the US Congress voted for $26bn in new emergency aid to Israel.: “American’s government can change the course of the war but their action against Israel still falls short of what is required to apply real pressure on Netanyahu.
