Officials said in a statement released Tuesday that the U.S. government is breaking the law by supporting Israel and seeking loopholes to continue arms shipments.
In the United States, twelve former government officials are indicted by the president Joe Biden of the government being “undoubtedly complicit” in the killing of Palestinians in the Gaza war.
The officials in question have resigned from their positions because the United States continues to support Israel in the Gaza war, reports the Reuters news agency.
The officials said in a joint statement released Tuesday that the U.S. government is breaking the law by supporting Israel and seeking loopholes to continue arms shipments to Israel.
So far, neither the White House nor the State Department have commented on the statement, Reuters says.
According to the Gaza Ministry of Health under the terrorist organization Hamas, Israel has killed around 38,000 people in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of October, the majority of whom have been civilians.
Israel began air and artillery strikes on Gaza after Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist organizations attacked Israel at the beginning of last October. According to the Israeli authorities, nearly 1,200 people were killed in the attack, the majority of whom were also civilians.
In addition, the terrorist organizations took about 250 hostages, of which about a hundred are still prisoners in Gaza. The rest of the hostages have died or been released.
