Twelve former officials from the Biden administration who resigned over policy on Israel and the Gaza war have stated the government’s actions have endangered US national security.
The joint statement states that the policies have further destabilized the region, led to additional killing and starvation, and have targeted America and undermined its credibility.
This is not the first such statement from former officials.
Among the other signatories is Josh Paul, who oversaw Congressional relations on weapons transfers before quitting I n October.
A former White House official, two former air force department personnel and a former army officer in the Defence Intelligence Agency also signed the statement.
On April 10, seven current and former US officials told the BBC that President Biden’s pressure on Israel after a deadly attack on aid workers did not go far enough and would fail to stem the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
