On Wednesday, May 8th, Joe Biden made a significant announcement during an interview with CNN. He stated that the United States would cease supplying American ammunition to Israel if a large-scale operation were to begin in Rafah. This was the first time that the US President had acknowledged that weapons and ammunition provided to Israel are being used to target civilians in Gaza.
Biden specifically mentioned the use of 2,000-pound bombs in densely populated areas, which have resulted in significant civilian casualties. In response to this, Biden stated that he would withhold the weapons historically utilized for such operations, including powerful air bombs and artillery shells. The United States had already halted the transfer of significant air bombs to Israel, and this new statement extends to ammunition shells as well.
