US cuts arms supplies to Israel

Washington has cut arms supplies to the Jewish state. The US State Department noted that this is due to the fulfillment of most of the Israeli defense order.

"We keep a normal, if not accelerated, pace [of arms deliveries], but it is slower than in the first months of the conflict",

The Wall Street Journal's source in the US State Department said.

It is also noted that Israel has reduced the number of requests for the supply of weapons and ammunition. It is clarified that there is no need to look for political reasons behind the reduction in arms supplies.

At the same time, it should be noted that the US President announced in May that the United States would suspend the supply of weapons to Israel if the Jewish state did not end the military operation in Rafah. On June 18, Netanyahu officially stated that reducing arms supplies to Israel was inconceivable and demanded that restrictions be lifted.
