Israel Secures $8.7 Billion Aid Package from US for Military Plans
Israel’s Ministry of War Affairs has announced the securing of an $8.7 billion aid package from the United States to support its military objectives in the region. This deal, reached after high-level talks in Washington, includes $3.5 billion for wartime procurement and $5.2 billion for air defense systems.
As Israel continues its military actions in Gaza and Lebanon, Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas criticized the US for providing deadly weapons to Israel. Despite calls for a ceasefire, the US’s support for Israel’s aggression has been unwavering.
Abbas condemned the ongoing violence and called for an immediate cessation of hostilities. With the Israeli regime’s focus turning to Lebanon, there are growing concerns about the humanitarian impacts of the conflict.
The unconditional backing of the US for Israeli actions has drawn criticism from allies, urging a rethink of American support for the regime’s military campaigns.
