Biden administration's stance on weapons supply to Israel

The Biden administration's stance on withholding weapons from Israel for a potential ground assault on Rafa signals a shift in U.S.-Israel relations. Biden's decision to block the delivery of certain weapons is a historic move, as U.S. presidents rarely take such steps due to the longstanding ties between the two countries.
