The United States bristled after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu suggested ally Washington was withholding critical weapons to his country against Hamas in Gaza, AFP reports.

“Let me just start off by saying that we genuinely do not know what he’s talking about,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters.

With the exception of “one particular shipment of munitions” that US officials were looking at closely, Jean-Pierre said “there are no other pauses.None.”

Secretary of State Antony Blinken had said earlier that Washington is “continuing to review one shipment… with regard to 2,000-pound bombs because of our concerns about their use in a densely populated area like Rafah,” a city in southern Gaza.

But the top American diplomat said other weapons were moving as usual and that Washington was “making sure that Israel has what it needs to defend itself.”
