US Suspends Sales of Assault Rifles to Israel

Joe Biden's government, under the guise of humanity, has suspended the sale of more than 27,000 assault rifles produced by this country to Israel, citing concerns about attacks by Zionist settlers on Palestinians in the West Bank. This decision was taken when the Biden government continues to blindly support Tel Aviv at the UN Security Council, and send bombs to this illegal regime. According to the Arab News report, the three firearm cases, including M4 and M16 rifles, have been awaiting approval from the government to the DPR for more than a month. Officials say the government has not yet authorized the shipment, because American officials and lawmakers are pressuring Tel Aviv to provide guarantees that the weapons will not fall into the hands of Israeli settlers. Officials said that the United States this month told the Israeli government that it had not provided adequate guarantees that Israeli police would have access to weapons and incident response teams, and that it was not yet willing to approve the transfer . According to the announcement by the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza, as a result of the recent attacks by the Zionist regime army in Gaza, 18,608 Palestinians were killed and 50,594 others were injured.
