Chicago – November 11, 2024
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan stated on Sunday as Israel started to present its case that the United States will determine this week if Israel has improved the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip and how Washington will react.
In a letter signed by Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken on October 13, President Joe Biden’s administration warned Israel that it must take a number of actions within 30 days or face limitations on U.S. military assistance.
We will make assessments of their progress this week,” Sullivan stated on the CBS show “Face the Nation.” “And then Secretary Austin, Secretary Blinken, the president will make judgements about what we do in response, and I’m not going to get ahead of that.” Israel’s humanitarian efforts over the last six months were listed on Sunday by COGAT, the Israeli military organisation that handles civilian affairs in Palestine, “highlighting recent initiatives and detailing plans to sustain support for Gaza as winter approaches.”
