US President Joe Biden has urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to de-escalate tensions following the assassination of key Hamas and Hezbollah figures, warning that further escalation could jeopardize US support. Amid fears that this violence could derail negotiations for a hostage deal and ceasefire, Biden's administration is navigating a precarious diplomatic landscape, aiming for regional stability while addressing the ramifications of these high-profile assassinations.

The Biden administration, deeply involved in negotiations for a ceasefire and hostage release, is concerned that the killing of Ismail Haniyeh will complicate these efforts. With Haniyeh being a pivotal figure in discussions with mediators, the assassination raises questions about the viability of ongoing talks. Senior officials worry that this could lead to a broader conflict in the region, especially with recent tensions involving Hezbollah and Iran.
