US intelligence officials temporarily paused the sharing of some sensitive information with Israel during the Biden administration, citing concerns over Israel's conduct in the Gaza conflict. In the latter half of 2024, the US cut off a live drone video feed used by Israel and restricted the use of certain intelligence for targeting purposes. These actions reflected growing unease among US officials about civilian casualties and the treatment of Palestinian prisoners by Israeli authorities. The intelligence community sought assurances from Israel that American information would be used in accordance with the law of war, and the decisions to withhold intelligence were described as limited and tactical, not a shift in overall policy.
