The Biden administration does not believe what is happening in Gaza is a genocide, Jake Sullivan told reporters on Tuesday, 14 May.
"We believe Israel can and must do more to ensure the protection and well-being of innocent civilians. We do not believe what is happening in Gaza is a genocide. We have been firmly on record rejecting that proposition," the White House National Security Advisor said.
The US has paused a shipment of 2,000lb bombs because it does not "believe they should be dropped in densely populated cities," Mr Sullivan added.
"We are talking to the Israeli government about this."
