Israel's war on Gaza — now in its 127th day — has killed at least 27,947 Palestinians and wounded 67,459 others, as US Senator Bernie Sanders calls the US "complicit" in the humanitarian crisis in the blockaded enclaveIsraeli air strikes pummelled densely crowded Rafah after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered his troops to"prepare to operate" in the southern border city that has become a last holdout for displaced Palestinians.

In a statement, Moody's said it had done so after assessing that"the ongoing military conflict with Hamas, its aftermath and wider consequences materially raise the political risk for Israel as well as weaken its executive and legislative institutions and its fiscal strength, for the foreseeable future."

He said collective punishment of Palestinians in Gaza is not a way forward to resolve the complex crisis in the region. His remarks came after Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the army to develop a dual plan to expel civilians from Rafah and to defeat the remaining Hamas fighters. "One of the worst humanitarian disasters in modern history is now unfolding before our eyes in Gaza today, right now, and we, as the government of the United States, are complicit," Sanders said ahead of a Senate procedural vote on whether to advance security aid for Israel and Ukraine.

The United States has briefed Israel on a new US national security memorandum that reminds countries receiving US weapons to stick to international law, the White House has said.
