Israel-Palestine war updates: Why US-Iran $6 billion prisoner swap deal is under scrutiny
Joe Biden's $6 billion prisoner-swap deal with Iran is now under the spotlight after militant group Hamas, long backed by Iran, staged one of the bloodiest attacks on Israel in years. Some Republicans are trying to link Biden to attack. Nikki Haley, one of the Republican presidential candidate for 2024 polls, alleged that allowing Iran access to the billions of dollars improves its budget situation, letting it use the money elsewhere. «Let's be honest with the American people and understand that Hamas knows, and Iran knows they're moving money around as we speak, because they know $6 billion is going to be released. That's the reality,» she said. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has however said that there is not evidence yet of «Iran directed or was behind this particular attack, but there’s certainly a long relationship.» Fighting between Israel and Hamas militants continued for the third day, which is likely to drag on. More than 1,100 people have been killed in Palestinian group Hamas's surprise assault on Israel on Saturday and Israel's retaliation.
