Shortly after arriving, a series of protests spread from Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp to the occupied West Bank and other Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories and Israel – known as the first Intifada.

In a prepared statement from President Joe Biden released Friday, he condemns the path taken by certain Republicans in Congress who have expressed opposition to the continuance of U.S. assistance for Ukraine amid its defense against the ongoing Russian invasion.
