Can Israel stand alone without weapons deliveries from the US? - DW News.

Israel says its military has enough weapons and munitions to press ahead with an offensive in the southern Gaza city of Rafah. This comes after a warning from US President Joe Biden that Washington could cut some weapons exports to Israel if the offensive goes ahead – fearing massive civilian casualties.

And we talk to Middle East analyst Laura Blumenfeld. She served in the US State Department as senior policy advisor for the Middle East and joins us from Washington D.C.
