"There is no update with the delivery of that [batch of] 2,000 pound bombs, that shipment remains paused and under review," Miller said during a press briefing. US President Joe Biden said during a press conference after the NATO summit July 8-11 that he regrets not convincing Israel to scale back its military operation in the Gaza Strip earlier in the conflict. Biden further said he will continue to withhold US shipments of 2,000-pound bombs meant for Israel due to concerns that they will be used in densely populated areas in Gaza. The Biden administration has placed on temporary hold one shipment of the 2,000-pound bombs that Israel had requested.
