Democrats Suspend $2.8B Arms Sale to Israel
The US Congress has temporarily halted the transfer of a $2.8 billion arms deal to Israel, which includes 40,000 bombs and 20,000 bunker-busting warheads, due to concerns that Israeli occupation forces might use these weapons in operations that could violate American and international laws. Two Democratic members of the Foreign Relations Committees in both the House and the Senate have paused the procedure, demanding assurances regarding the extent to which the use of these weapons complies with legal standards, especially since the occupation forces have used heavy bombs during their assaults on Gaza and Lebanon, resulting in numerous civilian casualties. While this objection does not cancel the deal entirely, the Biden administration can override it through measures such as declaring a national emergency, as previous administrations have done.
