On October 7 2023, Palestinian militant group Hamas led an invasion into Israel via the Gaza Strip, marking the first time direct contact was made on Israeli territory since the First Arab-Israeli War in 1948 and 1949. Following attacks on bordering communities and Israeli military bases, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu formally declared war and issued counter-offensive strikes.
Although the majority of Americans placed more blame on the Palestinian side for the escalation of violence seen in October, nearly 30 percent of Democrats held both sides equally culpable for the recent escalation of events.
