Poll Shows Growing American Concern Over Israel's Gaza Operations

A recent AP-NORC poll indicates approximately half of Americans now believe Israel's military response in Gaza has exceeded appropriate limits, an increase from 40% in November 2023. The survey shows this sentiment has grown across partisan lines, with increases among Democrats (from 58% to 70%), independents (from 40% to 50%), and Republicans (from 18% to 24%). The poll was conducted as Israel expanded ground operations in Gaza City amid heightened international scrutiny.
