During a meeting in Israel, US envoy Amos Hochstein and Ambassador Jack Lew clarified to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that his recent public comments about the US withholding weapons and ammunition from Israel were inaccurate. The US officials emphasized that, except for ongoing discussions on large diameter munitions, all other items have either been delivered, are in the process of delivery, or are under review.

The Biden administration expressed frustration with Netanyahu's statements, calling them unproductive and wrong. This disagreement comes amidst heightened tensions in the region, with concerns over the conflict in Gaza and potential escalation with Hezbollah.
