Rubio Fast-Tracks $4 Billion in Military Aid to Israel, Reversing Biden-Era Restrictions

The Trump administration cites longstanding U.S. commitment to Israel's security as it accelerates arms deliveries and repeals previous conditions on military support.

• U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio signed a declaration to expedite $4 billion in military aid to Israel using emergency authority.
• The decision reverses a Biden-era partial arms embargo and associated conditions on military support to Israel.
• The Trump administration has approved nearly $12 billion in foreign military sales to Israel since taking office in January 2025.
• The expedited arms package includes bombs, demolition kits, and other weaponry, with some items potentially available for immediate shipment from U.S. stock.
• This move follows the repeal of a Biden-era order requiring the reporting of potential violations of international law involving U.S.-supplied weapons.
