The United States has halted the shipment of bombs to Israel over concerns of a potential offensive in Rafah, southern Gaza. President Joe Biden has warned Israel that the US will stop supplying weapons if Israeli forces invade Rafah.

The move marks a turning point in US-Israel relations and has garnered support from progressive Democrats. However, it has also received criticism from Israeli officials and the Republican leadership.
