US approves sale of $3 billion in munitions, bulldozers to Israel ...Middle East

News by : (Daily Sun) -

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio signed off on the sales of $2.04 billion in bomb bodies and warheads, another $675.7 million in other bomb bodies and guidance kits, and $295 million in bulldozers and related equipment, the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) said.

That results in the waiver of the usual requirement that such sales be approved by Congress, it said.

The latest weapons transactions come after Washington approved the sales of more than $7.4 billion in bombs, missiles and related equipment to Israel earlier this month.

The war devastated much of Gaza -- a narrow coastal territory on the Mediterranean -- resulting in the displacement of much of its population, but a ceasefire has been in effect since last month, bringing a halt to the deadly conflict and providing for the release of hostages seized by Hamas.

But his successor Donald Trump has rolled back that decision, and the sales announced Friday include weapons of that size.
