US keeps pause on one bomb shipment to Israel while it is under review

WASHINGTON – US President Joe Biden's top aides told the visiting Israeli defense chief this week that Washington is maintaining a pause on a shipment of heavy bombs for Israel while the issue is under review, a senior US official said on Wednesday.

Wrapping up his visit, Gallant said earlier on Wednesday that there had been significant progress on the issue of US munitions supply to Israel, adding that "obstacles were removed and bottlenecks were addressed." "We are in discussions ultimately to find a resolution," the senior US official said on condition of anonymity. "But I think the president has expressed his concerns about that one shipment, and those are very valid concerns."Gallant also discussed with Sullivan "Israel's commitment to ensuring the safe return of Israeli communities to their homes in the north by changing the security reality in the area," the Israeli defense chief's office said.

"Nobody that we have talked to, Lebanon, Israel, wants a major escalation that is not in anybody's interest, not in our interest," the senior US official said on Wednesday.
