US will 'remain complicit in Israel's atrocities' if arms sales persist: HRW
Ahead of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to the White House, Human Rights Watch has urged the US to cut off military support to Israel.
"If President Trump wants to break with the Biden administration's complicity in the Israeli government's atrocities in Gaza, he should immediately suspend arms transfers to Israel," said Bruno Stagno, HRW’s chief advocacy officer.
"Trump said the hostilities in Gaza were ‘not our war’ but 'their war,' but unless the US ends its military support, Gaza will also be Trump’s war."
US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are meeting on Tuesday.
