US diplomats at the State Department filed an internal "dissent" memo criticizing the US diplomatic stance on the war in Gaza. The memo called for the US to call for a cease fire and criticize Israel's actions which constitute war crimes.

*Protesters [organized by Jewish Voice for Peace] stage sit-in demanding ceasefire in Gaza at Statue of Liberty.*

*500 Jewish New Yorkers take over Statue of Liberty demanding a ceasefire.*

*UN-run shelters in Gaza are so crowded that it is impossible to count the people needing food, water, medicine and other basics, administrators say.*

*The two-state solution has been a diplomatic failure, [thus far]. It's also still the best answer we’ve got.*
