Quick Glance: US Approves $20 Billion Arms Sales to Israel Amid Conflict
- The United States has recently approved an additional $20 billion in arms sales to Israel, coinciding with ongoing military actions in Gaza. This authorization, granted by Secretary of State Antony Blinken, includes fighter jets and missiles.
- The U.S. State Department highlighted that Israel's security is crucial to national interests and that these arms transfers are intended to enhance Israel's self-defense capabilities. The order consists of Boeing-made F-15 fighter jets and various ammunition types.
- This announcement comes amidst concerns over potential retaliation from Iran and Hezbollah following the assassinations of senior Hamas and Hezbollah officials. President Biden expressed hope for de-escalation through a ceasefire, while violence in Gaza continues unabated.
- Critics are urging the Biden administration to halt arms transfers to Israel, claiming that such support implicates the U.S. in the devastation of Gaza. The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations emphasized the need to secure an immediate ceasefire and the release of hostages.
