As civilian casualties in Gaza surpass 54,000, the U.S. continues its weapons shipments to Israel. The Israeli Ministry of Defense announced that the 800th American military aircraft loaded with ammunition has arrived in Tel Aviv.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel has been conducting continuous airstrikes on Gaza, resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians, particularly women and children. Despite widespread calls for a ceasefire from the international community, Israel’s bombardment continues, bolstered by military support from the U.S., which enhances its offensive capabilities.
90,000 Tons of Deliveries: Tanks, Ammunition, Weaponry…
In a written statement, the Israeli Ministry of Defense confirmed the arrival of the 800th U.S. military flight in Tel Aviv. The statement noted that since October 7, over 90,000 tons of military aid have been delivered, including armored vehicles, various munitions, weaponry, and military equipment.
Accusations of U.S. Complicity in Massacres
More than 54,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s ongoing attacks on Gaza. Reports indicate that a significant portion of the casualties are women and children, with nearly all civilian infrastructure destroyed.
International human rights organizations and observers have criticized U.S. arms support to Israel as a form of complicity in mass killings. The continuation of arms shipments despite the mounting civilian toll has raised serious questions about the U.S. government’s commitment to international law and human rights standards.
Growing International Backlash
Organizations such as the United Nations (UN), Amnesty International, and Human Rights Watch (HRW) have called for investigations into civilian casualties in Gaza and an immediate halt to arms sales. Nevertheless, the U.S. government maintains its support for Israel, citing the country’s “right to self-defense.”
