สหรัฐฯ ระงับการขนส่งระเบิด 3,500 ลูกไปยังอิสราเอล

The shipment was meant to transfer 3,500 bombs to Israel, which the United States halted over worries about the large munitions in the package being used in an urban setting, an anonymous administration official told the Associated Press. The package included 1,800 2,000-pound bombs and 1,700 500-pound bombs, according to the AP.

The pause marks the first time the U.S. has publicly held up military aid to Israel since the October 7 Hamas attack. An American official described the decision to the Washington Post as a “shot across the bow” to signal the Biden administration’s unease with a Rafah operation.
