The Pentagon continues to provide weapons shipments almost on a daily basis to Israel, Pentagon deputy press secretary Sabrina Singh tells reporters.
“We are not putting any limits on how Israel uses weapons,” Singh says. “That is really up to the Israeli Defense Force to use and how they are going to conduct their operations.”
Singh does not answer a question on whether there were concerns inside the Pentagon about the way the weapons were being used, but said that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has regularly emphasized the need for Israel to follow the laws of armed conflict and avoid civilian casualties as much as possible.
