US $3.5 Billion Military Aid to Israel
The U.S. State Department announced the release of $3.5 billion in military aid to Israel, which is part of a larger $14 billion supplemental bill approved by Congress in April 2023. This funding comes amidst escalating tensions due to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, where significant casualties and a severe humanitarian crisis have occurred. The aid aims to bolster Israel’s military capabilities by purchasing U.S.-made weapons. While this move strengthens U.S.-Israel relations, it has drawn criticism for potentially escalating the conflict and worsening the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
