US requests Israeli commitment on American weapon use in Gaza, sets deadline for response
Israel is being asked to comply with new regulations demanding the use of US arms in accordance to international law and the allowance of US aid deliveries.
The Biden administration asked Israel to sign a declaration stating that the use of American weapons in the region will adhere strictly to international law, three senior Israeli and American officials told Walla! on Tuesday. Additionally, the US urged Israel to permit humanitarian aid into Gaza and has only given Israel 45 days to respond to the request.
The Biden administration threatened that failure to provide a "credible and reliable" commitment within the deadline may result in the suspension of arms shipments.
