Hamas on Sunday condemned the US House of Representatives‘ approval of billions of dollars in new military aid to Israel, much of which is to strengthen Israeli air defences. “This support, which violates international law, is a licence and a green light for the Zionist extremist government (Israel) to continue the brutal aggression against our people,” Hamas said.
“We consider this step a confirmation of the official American complicity and partnership in the war of extermination waged by the fascist occupation army against our Palestinian people in Gaza Strip.”
On Saturday, the US House of Representatives approved $13 billion in military assistance to America’s historic ally Israel in its war against Hamas in Gaza. Washington is already Israel’s largest military supplier. The US bill said that more than $9 billion will also be earmarked to address “the dire need for humanitarian assistance for Gaza as well as other vulnerable populations around the world”.
