U.S. Military Aid to Israel: No Changes Despite Humanitarian Concerns

Secretary of State Antony Blinken has chosen to maintain current military assistance to Israel, despite humanitarian concerns in Gaza. President Biden's administration has urged Israel to implement specified measures within a month or face potential limitations on U.S. support.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is maintaining current levels of military assistance to Israel, according to a report by Axios, which cited two unnamed U.S. officials.

The officials pointed out that the U.S. expects more actions to alleviate the humanitarian situation in Gaza, as outlined in the report.

In a move to pressure Israel, the Biden administration indicated in an October 13 letter that the ally must action specific measures within 30 days, or potentially face restrictions on American military aid.
