The United States has provided Israel with 14,000 2,000-pound bombs. U.S. officials: During this round of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict
On the 28th local time, CCTV reporters learned that two US officials said that since the outbreak of the first round of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on October 7 last year, the Biden administration of the United States has shipped a large amount of ammunition to Israel, including at least 14,000 2,000-pound MK-84 bombs, 6,500 500-pound bombs, 3,000 Hellfire air-to-ground missiles, 1,000 bunker-busting bombs, 2,600 small-diameter bombs and other ammunition.
AFP quoted a senior US government official on the 26th as saying that since the outbreak of the new round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the United States has shipped more than $6.5 billion worth of weapons to Israel, with about $3 billion in May this year alone. The official reiterated that the United States has suspended the shipment of "only one batch" of weapons to Israel, and the complicated "bureaucratic process" of the United States has caused misunderstandings between the two sides on this issue.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant ended his three-day visit to the United States on the 26th. He told reporters that day that progress had been made on "multiple issues" during the trip, including the issue of US arms supply to Israel. Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly accused the US government of "withholding" the weapons and ammunition needed by the Israeli army, which has hindered the Israeli army's war in the Gaza Strip in Palestine.
On the 19th of this month, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights pointed out in a report that the Israeli army was suspected of using heavy bombs in a series of attacks in the Gaza Strip, causing a large number of civilian deaths and the destruction of a large range of civilian targets, and may have violated the laws of war many times. The report also pointed out that Palestinian armed groups continued to fire indiscriminate shells at Israel, violating the obligation of international humanitarian law to protect civilians.
