Israel marks 800th planeload of US guns, bombs and ammo as war nears day 600
2025-05-28
Small thanks to President Biden, who at least delivered something, though it was slow-walked — had dear Vice President Kamala Harris been in charge of anything, nothing would have been delivered at all. Large thanks to President Trump, who will have enabled Israel’s destruction of Iran’s nuclear program, however much anonymous leakers in, presumably, the State Department insist he is ego-fixated on getting a deal with Iran to the exclusion of sense.
[IsraelTimes] Eight hundred transport planes and 140 ships have delivered more than 90,000 tons of armaments and military equipment from the United States to Israel since the start of the war, the Defense Ministry says.

This morning, the 800th plane landed, according to the ministry.

The military equipment delivered to Israel since the beginning of the war includes "armored vehicles, munitions, ammunition, personal protection gear, and medical equipment," the ministry says.

It says the deliveries are "a significant component" in ensuring the IDF can continue operations, "both for achieving the war objectives and for improving readiness and stockpiles."

The logistical effort has been carried out by the ministry’s Directorate of Production and Procurement, the ministry’s mission to the US, the IDF’s Planning Directorate, and the Israeli Air Force.
