The White House allowed restrictions on arms supplies to Israel.

The United States may limit arms supplies to Israel, US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said.

⠀
This is how he commented on the words of the country’s President Joe Biden, who called the introduction of conditions for sending military assistance “a worthwhile idea.”

⠀

“He (Biden) answered the question and acknowledged the idea,” Sullivan said.

⠀
At the same time, the presidential adviser emphasized that the American authorities consider their current approach within the framework of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict effective, since it allows “to achieve results.” We are talking about the return of hostages, a temporary cessation of hostilities and the supply of humanitarian aid to the residents of the Gaza Strip.

⠀

Asked whether Washington’s position meant that “there would be no restrictions,” Sullivan replied: “No, we all saw what he said. He accepted the idea.”

On Wednesday it became known that Israel and Hamas, with the mediation of Qatar, reached the first large-scale agreement since the conflict escalated on October 7: the parties agreed to cease hostilities for four days to exchange dozens of hostages and detainees held by each other.
