JAKARTA - The Joe Biden administration has informally notified the US Congress of proposed arms sales of US$8 billion (equivalent to Rp129 trillion) to Israel.
The sale includes ammunition for fighter jets and attack helicopters, Axios reported on Friday, January 3, citing two sources.
The deal required approval from the House and Senate committees. It said US arms sales to Israel included artillery shells and air-to-air missiles so that fighter jets could defend against threats such as drones, the report said.
"The president has made it clear that Israel has the right to defend its citizens, in accordance with international law and international humanitarian law, and to prevent aggression from Iran and its proxies," a US official said.
