US president says he will stop supplying arms to Israel if it launches Rafah operation
President Joe Biden said Wednesday that he would not supply offensive weapons that Israel could use to launch an all-out assault on Rafah out of concern for the well-being of the more than 1 million civilians sheltering there. Biden, in an interview with CNN, said the US was still committed to Israel’s defense and would supply Iron Dome rocket interceptors and other defensive arms, but that if Israel goes into Rafah, “we’re not going to supply the weapons and artillery shells used.”
