Biden confirms that American bombs killed Palestinian civilians

President Joe Biden said Wednesday that Israel has used American bombs to kill Palestinian civilians.

“Civilians have been killed in Gaza as a result of these bombs and other methods they use to attack population centers,” Biden said in a CNN interview when asked whether the 2,000-pound bombs sent to Israel had killed civilians. The White House stopped a weapons shipment last week that contained this type of bomb.

If the Israeli military launches a ground offensive in Rafah, a city in Gaza where more than a million people are seeking refuge, the White House will not “supply the weapons that have been used to combat Rafah in the past to deal with the cities.” to get done,” Biden said.

“We will not deliver the weapons and artillery shells used,” Biden said.
