US Approves Arms Shipment to Israel Amid Rising Palestinian Death Toll
The United States has announced plans to provide billions of dollars worth of bombs and warplanes to Israel, including 1,800 MK84 2,000-pound bombs, 500 MK82 500-pound bombs, and 25 F-35A fighter jets. This decision has drawn international criticism as Israel's military actions in Gaza have resulted in nearly 33,000 Palestinian deaths and over 75,000 wounded, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. The Palestine Red Crescent Society reported that 26 of its members have been killed by Israeli forces. Qatar welcomed an ICJ ruling calling for Israel to ensure food supplies to Gaza. Protests in Jordan have occurred for six consecutive nights.
