On October 7, 2023, Palestinian militant group Hamas led an invasion into Israel via the Gaza Strip, marking the first time direct contact was made on Israeli territory since the First Arab-Israeli War in 1948 and 1949. Following attacks on bordering communities and Israeli military bases, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu formally declared war and issued counter-offensive strikes.
A number of devastating attacks across Gaza and parts of Lebanon have followed, prompting many to question the United States' role in both its military assistance and weaponry. According to a September 2024 survey, nearly one year after the war began, over one-third of Americans approved of Israel using U.S.-provided weapons to carry out attacks.
