Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is among those calling for President Joe Biden to immediately suspend all U.S. military aid to Israel as she called Sunday night's bombing of a 'tent zone of innocents' in Rafah 'an indefensible atrocity.
Critics of the bombing said it was just the latest violation of international human rights law by Israel that proves a ceasefire and a suspension of the incursion is urgently needed, especially after the International Court of Justice last week called on Israel to 'immediately' halt its military operations in Rafah and human rights groups have warned for months that such a military operation would result in exactly the kind of carnage unleashed Sunday.
