The Trump administration is reportedly planning a substantial $2.8 billion weapons sale to Israel. This proposed deal includes the transfer of powerful munitions, according to multiple reports.
Sources indicate this would be the largest such sale in years, with plans to send approximately 40,000 one-ton bombs, also described as 2,000lb bombs, to the Middle Eastern ally. The munitions have been characterized as controversial by some outlets.
The sale highlights ongoing defense cooperation between the United States and Israel. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
