❗️US military aid to Israel exceeds $21.7bn since Gaza war began, study finds
A new report by Brown University’s Costs of War project has revealed that Washington has supplied Israel with at least $21.7bn in military assistance since the start of its genocide in October 2023.
The study, covering both the Biden and Trump administrations, says US military spending in West Asia has reached an additional $10bn over the same period.
The figure is based on open-source data and congressional notifications.
Neither the State Department nor the White House commented on the findings, while the Pentagon, which administers part of the aid, did not respond to requests for clarification.
The report was released as Gaza marks two years of Israel’s ongoing genocide, with attacks across the enclave still being reported.
