The US State Department has approved a major arms sale to the Israeli occupation totaling more than $7 billion, the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) announced on Friday.
According to the agencyβs statement, the sale includes munitions, guidance kits, fuzes, and related support equipment, with an estimated cost of $6.75 billion. "The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today," the statement read.
Additionally, the US approved the sale of AGM-114 Hellfire missiles and related equipment to the Israeli regime, valued at approximately $660 million. "The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Israel of AGM-114 Hellfire Missiles and related equipment for an estimated cost of $660 million," the DSCA said.
The approval follows continued US military support for the Israeli occupation amid its ongoing aggression on the Gaza Strip and occupied Palestine, in addition to Lebanon and Syria, despite growing international calls for restrictions on arms transfers. The sales are subject to congressional review, but approvals of such deals have historically faced little resistance.
