In November 2025, news emerged regarding accusations against the Biden administration for allegedly covering up the intentional killing of Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh by Israeli forces in 2022. Steve Gabavics, a US State Department investigator, claims his investigation concluded Israel deliberately killed Abu Akleh, who was clearly marked as press. He alleges the State Department deliberately labeled the killing "accidental" to avoid conflict with the Israeli government. Gabavics further asserts that the US has failed to hold Israel accountable for the deaths of several American citizens killed by the Israeli military. The claims were made public during an interview with Marc Lamont Hill on UpFront.
