President Joe Biden has called for a "pause" in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, in response to increasing pressure from human rights groups, fellow world leaders and members of his own Democratic Party. The conflict has been ongoing since the Oct. 7 terrorist attack by Hamas, which killed about 1,400 people in Israel. Biden's call for a pause is seen as a step in the right direction, but it is unclear if it will be enough to bring an end to the conflict.
