Senior officials in the US administration see that Israel faces the risk of igniting another front of fighting in the West Bank.

According to the Hebrew newspaper "Haaretz," members of the Biden administration warned, during talks with senior officials in Israel in recent days, that the situation in the West Bank is on the verge of boiling over, pointing to the possibility of the Palestinian Authority collapsing financially, which could lead to losing control over central cities, and they estimated that settler violence is increasing support for Hamas in the West Bank.

The US administration believes that a large outbreak of violence in the West Bank would harm the legitimacy and international support that Israel currently receives to continue fighting Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
