The Biden administration has demanded and succeeded in forcing Israel to withdraw troops from southern Gaza by threatening to cut off military aid.

There were negotiations taking place in Cairo on Sunday. The head of the CIA, Bill Burns, met with the head of Israel’s Mossad and intermediaries from Qatar and Egypt.
