Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi has passed away in a helicopter crash, causing a significant impact given his political background and the potential implications on Iran's military presence in the Middle East. This event occurs amidst concerns of a regional war outbreak. In parallel, President Biden, after facing pressure from his left-wing base and campus protests, has shifted his stance on Israel, now supporting a ceasefire despite originally strongly backing the country. Biden's evolving position aims to address what he now perceives as a humanitarian crisis in Gaza and advocates for an immediate ceasefire to end hostilities and bring back hostages.
