Washington DC — The United States administration of President Joe Biden is set to provide a new supply of weapons to Israel, three lawmakers have confirmed.
Biden’s administration’s support to Israel is worth $1 Billion consisting of weapons, and ammunition.
$700 million is earmarked for tank ammunition, $500 million for tactical vehicles, and $60 million for mortar rounds.

However there is no confirmation yet when the new packages of weapons will be sent to Israel.
The US first provided explosives to Israel earlier this month, which was used to strengthen its offensive in the city of Rafah in Gaza.
Israel has been dealing with war in Gaza for more than seven months.
Some US lawmakers are strongly opposed to sending arms to Israel.
House Republicans are also planning to file a bill that would mandate the sending of arms to Israel, but according to the White House, Biden may veto the said bill.
