Netanyahu hopes to 'overcome' tension with Biden over arms shipments

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he hopes he and US President Joe Biden can overcome their disagreements over the war in Gaza, after Biden withheld some weapons shipments to Israel. On Wednesday (May 8) in a CNN interview, Biden warned Israel that the US would stop supplying weapons if Israeli forces were togo ahead with a full-scale invasion of Rafah. Netanyahu shared his plans for Gaza’s future saying ‘some sort of civilian government’ would have to be negotiated, one that ‘isn’t committed to the destruction of Israel’, he added.
