NextImg:First US weapons shipment arrives in Israel after deadly Hamas attacks: IDF

The first shipment of US weapons arrived in Israel Tuesday as the country wages war against Hamas, according to the Israeli Defense Forces. 

“The first plane carrying U.S. armaments has since arrived at the Nevatim Airbase in southern Israel this evening,” the IDF tweeted. “The cooperation between our militaries is a key part of ensuring regional security and stability in times of war.”

The “advanced ammunition” aboard the aircraft will allow for “significant blows and preparation for additional scenarios” against the terror group, IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari said.

“We are grateful for the American backing and assistance to the IDF in particular, and to the State of Israel in general, during this challenging period,” he added

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters at the White House Tuesday that the US “has surged ammunition and interceptors for [Israel’s] Iron Dome” missile defense system at the direction of President Biden. 

Sullivan added that Biden, 80, spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday to discuss “additional capabilities that Israel will need.”

Biden has authorized the shipment of ammunition for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system.

“He pledged that American planes will be landing in Israel with those capabilities in the days ahead,” Sullivan said, noting that the White House will work with Congress to ensure that Israel continues to receive “critical assets.”

As part of the effort to arm Israel for its war against Hamas – which launched a deadly surprise terror attack against the Jewish state over the weekend – Boeing is also speeding up the delivery of 1,000 smart bombs, according to Fox News

The Israeli Air Force reportedly flew the 250-pound bombs to Israel after being picked up at US Air Force base. 

The bombs were part of a 2021 contract, described as a “direct commercial sale” between Boeing and the Israeli military, according to the outlet. 

Biden has pledged to support Israel in the aftermath of Saturday’s brutal attacks.

“In this moment we must be crystal clear: We stand with Israel,” Biden said during remarks on Tuesday. “And we will make sure Israel has what it needs to take care of its citizens, defend itself and respond to this attack. There’s no justification for terrorism. There’s no excuse.”
