Is US support for Israel complicating efforts to reach peace in Gaza? | Inside Story

There's been widespread international condemnation of Israel's renewed bombing of Gaza, including from the United Nations.
But not from the Trump administration.
The US was the only country on the 15-member UN Security Council to back Israel's air strikes at a meeting on Tuesday.
Emboldened by President Donald Trump's support, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says negotiations with Hamas will only continue 'under fire'.
It comes as Itamar Ben-Gvir was reappointed as national security minister - a move likely to strengthen Netanyahu's coalition government.
Where does this leave Hamas and the mediators?
