White House criticises Netanyahu's comments on US-supplied weapons

WASHINGTON - The White House on Thursday said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's comments on the US-supplied weapons was "incorrect."

Netanyahu on Tuesday said he told US Secretary of State Antony Blinken that it was "inconceivable" that in the past few months Washington was "withholding weapons and ammunitions" to Israel.

"It was perplexing to say the least, certainly disappointing, especially given that no other country is doing more to help Israel defend itself against the threat by Hamas," White House spokesman John Kirby told reporters.
