The US state department has pushed forward a $1 billion weapons package for Israel, containing tank rounds, mortars, and tactical vehicles, despite concerns of a potential Rafah invasion. President Joe Biden delayed bomb shipments to prevent civilian harm, urging Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu to exercise caution.

The decision, part of a larger arms deal, sparked bipartisan criticism in the US, calling for restrictions on offensive weapon transfers. As the Israel-Gaza conflict intensifies, the Biden administration aims to balance Israel's defense needs while preventing further escalation with Hamas.
