New US Military Aid to Israel Shows Direct Involvement of the US administration in the conflict in the Gaza Strip. This statement was made by supporters of the Palestinian movement Hamas.
„We strongly condemn the provision of military aid to Israel in the amount of USD 26 billion and consider this step as official evidence of US involvement in the war waged by the occupying forces in Gaza,” said in a statement , posted on the official Hamas Telegram channel. The movement added that, in their view, “the US administration and President [US Joe] Biden personally bear political, legal and moral responsibility for the war crimes committed by Israel against the Palestinians”, and granting a new military aid package to the Jewish state “violates international law and gives Israel the green light to continue its aggression in the enclave.“
On April 20, the US House of Representatives approved bills to provide military aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, confiscate frozen Russian assets for transfer to Kiev and impose additional sanctions on China. The volume of the package was 95 billion dollars, it includes in particular 60 billion USD for Kiev and 26 billion USD for Israel and humanitarian aid for civilians in conflict zones, including the Gaza Strip.
