Washington on Tuesday, as Biden administration officials flatly denied the allegations.
“We genuinely do not know what he’s talking about,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said at her daily press briefing. “We just don’t.”
The Biden administration vehemently refutes Netanyahu’s allegation that the US is obstructing arms transfers, while it is at war with Hamas.
“The White House stated that we truly have no idea what he is talking about.” Netanyahu made the accusations in a video posted to X.
Speaking in English, he said he told Secretary of State Antony Blinken during the U.S. diplomat’s recent visit to Israel that it was “inconceivable that in the past few months, the administration has been withholding weapons and ammunitions.”
“Israel, America’s closest ally, fighting for its life, fighting against Iran and our other common enemies,” he continued.
