The Israeli Defense Ministry said Monday that the US has delivered over 50,000 tons of weapons and other military equipment since the start of Israelโs genocidal campaign in Gaza, demonstrating the Biden administrationโs staunch support for the slaughter.
Since October 7, 107 ships and 500 transport planes have brought US military aid shipments to Israel. The Israeli Defense Ministry said the deliveries have included โarmored vehicles, munitions, ammunition, personal protection gear, and medical equipment.โ
The ministry added that the US support was โcrucial for sustaining the IDFโs operational capabilities during the ongoing war.โ
Back in April, President Biden signed a bill into law that included $17 billion in additional military aid for Israel on top of the $3.8 billion the country receives each year. The State Department recently approved a series of major arms deals for Israel worth $20 billion, including a new fleet of F-15 fighter jets.
