Axios: Netanyahu will face a widespread boycott in Congress. Progressives asked Democratic President Joe Biden to put greater pressure on Israel to alleviate the burden of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer rejected Netanyahu's request to speak before the Democratic bloc in the Senate. Netanyahu spoke to Republicans via video link nearly a week after Schumer delivered a speech calling him an obstacle to peace, and urging new elections in Israel. The Israeli Prime Minister said that he will continue the war on the Gaza Strip.
