The United States continues to stand by Israel's efforts to defeat and eliminate Hamas, but there has undoubtedly been a marked shift in language from Washington on how the Israelis should approach this next phase of the war.
There have been thousands of civilian casualties in northern Gaza, with the local health ministry saying more than 190 people have been killed since fighting resumed on Friday.

Private messages are likely to be even stronger.
