US President Donald Trump's administration is reportedly seeking congressional approval for a $6 billion weapons deal with "Israel", despite its recent airstrike on Qatar, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The proposed arms package includes 30 AH-64 Apache helicopters valued at $3.8 billion, and 3,250 infantry assault vehicles worth another $1.9 billion, sources familiar with the request said.

Although the deal is under review, delivery of the weaponry is not expected for another two to three years.

This comes despite "Israel's" horrific genocide in Gaza, which has so far killed more than 65,000 Palestinians, the overwhelming majority of whom are women and children. It also comes as the United States extends unconditional support to the Israeli occupation, both militarily and diplomatically.

US vetoes Gaza ceasefire resolution

The UN Security Council on Thursday, September 18, failed to adopt a draft resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip after the United States used its veto power.

According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent, the US rejected the resolution on the grounds that it did not condemn Hamas and did not recognize "Israel’s" so-called “right to defend itself.”

The resolution otherwise received the support of 14 members of the council.  

Diplomats noted that this is not the first time Washington has obstructed resolutions aimed at ending the war on Palestine or condemning "Israel" in the Security Council by exercising its veto. This marks the sixth time the US has cast a veto in the Security Council over the almost two-year Israeli war on Gaza.
