US Allegedly Threatens to Halt Arms Supplies to “Israel” in Event of Full-Scale Rafah Invasion

By Staff, Agencies

The US, the biggest supporter of the apartheid “Israeli” entity’s ongoing genocidal war against the Gaza Strip, claims it would freeze its generous arms supplies to the entity if the latter went ahead with its promised full-scale invasion of the refugee-packed Gazan city of Rafah.

"If they go into Rafah, I'm not supplying the weapons that have been used... to deal with the cities," President Joe Biden claimed in an interview with CNN on Wednesday.

"We're not gonna supply the weapons and the artillery shells that have been used," he went on.

The United States has been providing the regime with thousands of tons of military equipment since Tel Aviv launched the war on October 7 following the retaliatory Operation Al-Aqsa Flood by Gaza’s resistance groups.

Some 1.5 million Palestinians are seeking refuge in the city after fleeing the entity’s unbridled aggression against the rest of Gaza.

Rafah is already witnessing incessant “Israeli” airstrikes and a limited ground incursion by the entity.

The US president, meanwhile, significantly toned down his threat of halting the American arms supplies.

"We're not walking away from ‘Israel’s’ security," he said, adding, "We're walking away from ‘Israel’s’ ability to wage war in those areas."
