the US last week paused a bomb shipment for Israel over concerns it was going ahead with a major ground operation in Rafah, southern Gaza, a senior administration official said.

The shipment consisted of 1,800 2,000lb (907kg) bombs and 1,700 500lb bombs, the official told CBS News, the BBC’s media partner in the US.

Israel has not “fully addressed” US concerns over humanitarian needs of civilians in Rafah, the official said.

Israel made no immediate comment.

  6. Israel use USA's bombs in Rafah?

  7. Biden is going to screw Americans by kissing Israel rear, he's going to lose the presidency because he's backed a genocidal dictator and then our own wannabe dictator will be back in power with nothing to stop him and the whole world is going to be f'd! It's terrifying!!!!

  8. It's all US policy, that is causing war around the world

  9. What an irony…. US was sending bombs to Israel play with it in the playground, and suddenly when they remembered there was war with Gaza they stopped it.

  11. Election is coming lol 😂

  12. Your humanity kills me

  13. "Rafah is the place where Hamas sentenced its own existence".

  14. Sleepy Joe finally woke up?

  15. See the bbc is blocking pro Israel comments
    So much for free speech

  16. Biden showing his antisemtism

  17. See you tube or the bbc is blocking pro Israel comments

  18. Okay, stop "smart" bombs to Israel, but what's the real result? WWII mass bombing and mass civilian death because you CAN'T target Hamas specifically? So Biden is making Israel to do Dresden WW2 style bombing because the lack of specificity to Hamas they provide. King Biden stupid as usual chasing the wind that Hamas blows.

  19. Just until the election genocide joe loves it when benji tickles his prostate.

  20. The US just granted Israel 17 Billion dollars to Israel. This pause is not going to make much of a difference.

  21. Too little, too late, and certainly, the US is complicit in Gaza genocide

  22. MOSSAD AND IDF MUST THANK GOD. THAT GOD HAVE EXPOSED HIDDEN ENEMY OF ISRAEL. FOR AMERICA TO WITH- HOLD ARMS SHIPMENT TO ISRAEL IS STRICTLY INDICATIVE OF THE FACT THAT ISRAEL IS FIGHTING BOTH AMERICA AND HAMAS. WE ARE NIGERIAN JEWS AND WE MINITOR WORLD EVENTS FROM WHEREVER WE ARE.

  23. only fools believed that Hamas will let go those hostages without killing them or Israelis stop the attack on Rafah.

  24. France and Britain will support if the US fails to help Israel. Israel will also cut its support on intelligence and latest weapon programe technologies. In fact Israel nuclear initiative was supported by France when the US failed.

  25. They still have thousands of yesterday's shipment what a evil they are biden will be held accountable for the genocide he caused to the innocent palestinian families

  26. TOO LITTLE TOO LATE

  27. This is a smoke screen, USA shipped enough arms to Israel before this so-called pause of bombs shipment for a prolong war with Arabs in and out of Palestine.

  28. Hypocrisy 101:

    US pauses shipment of military arms to Israel over Rafah.

    US also pressures ICC to not issue arrest warrant for Netanyahu

  29. 😂😂😂

  30. I am absolutely fed up of US support for Israel. Same for the UK.

  31. Excellent!

  32. ! The secretary of defense said “…we paused one shipment of high payload munitions” that doesn’t mean they stopped all shipments of those or any other weapons. Just a little something they can say and put out there to make it seem like they care. Only symbolic and for optics.

  33. It’s not anti semitic to be anti genocide.

  34. This is a BBC news channel and yet every single comment I've made in support of fighting hamas terrorism has been deleted!!!… Typical BBC bullshit! 😬
