"Biden Administration Approves Billions in Weapons for Israel, Including Fighter Jets and Bombs"

The US has authorized the transfer of billions of dollars worth of bombs and fighter jets to Israel, despite public concerns about an anticipated Israeli military offensive in Rafah. The new arms packages include over 1,800 MK84 2,000-pound bombs and 500 MK82 500-pound bombs. This decision comes amid strong international criticism over Israel's bombing campaign and ground offensive in Gaza, and as some members of President Joe Biden's party call for cutting US military aid to Israel.
