U.S. Begins to Lift Restrictions on Arms to Israel
(Israel Hayom) Yehuda Shlezinger - The U.S. has begun lifting restrictions on arms it sold to Israel, with 70 D9 bulldozers now cleared for shipment, part of a 130-vehicle order signed ten months ago. The heavy-duty bulldozers are essential for establishing secure movement corridors for combat forces and detecting explosive devices. Israeli security sources said the availability of this equipment during recent military operations could have significantly reduced casualties from explosive devices among military personnel. The Biden administration had halted their delivery in October as leverage to facilitate humanitarian aid access to Gaza.
