The Pentagon declined to comment on the reported stoppage of ammunition when questioned by The Washington Times. Republican lawmakers have criticized the White House for its actions, with some accusing the administration of abandoning Israel in favor of Hamas.
The Biden administration has been vocal in its criticism of Israel’s actions in Gaza, expressing concern over civilian casualties despite Israel’s efforts to minimize harm to innocent bystanders. Israel maintains that Hamas is to blame for the civilian deaths due to its practice of using civilian infrastructure for its operations.
Furthermore, the US cautioned Israel against a military operation in the city of Rafah in southern Gaza, citing the need to protect civilian lives. However, Israeli media reported that Hamas rocket attacks from the Rafah area resulted in casualties among IDF soldiers.
The escalating tensions between the US and Israel highlight the complex dynamics at play in the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. The Biden administration’s approach to the situation has drawn criticism from conservative lawmakers who argue that the US should unequivocally support its ally, Israel, in its efforts to combat terrorism.
As these developments unfold, it remains to be seen how the relationship between the US and Israel will evolve in the context of the broader geopolitical challenges in the region.
