The United States has approved the sale of $510 million worth of bomb guidance kits and associated support to the Israeli occupation, the Pentagon announced late Monday, amid ongoing regional tensions and fresh military spending following the recent Israeli aggression on Iran.

In a statement, the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) said the sale would bolster “Israel’s” military ability, citing “current and future threats.”

“The proposed sale will enhance Israel's capability to meet current and future threats by improving its ability to defend Israel's borders, vital infrastructure, and population centers,” the DSCA said, adding that the decision was aligned with the United States’ strategic commitment to ensuring "Israel's" military edge.

The US State Department has formally approved the sale, but final authorization is still pending congressional review.

Sale comes after Israeli assault on Iran

The announcement comes just over two weeks after “Israel” launched an unprecedented aggression on Iranian territory on June 13, targeting nuclear facilities, senior scientists, military officials, and civilian infrastructure in a bid to permanently disrupt Tehran’s civilian nuclear program.

The Israeli campaign came after US President Donald Trump, who had previously withdrawn from the 2015 nuclear accord during his first term, abandoned his diplomatic overtures and ordered strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, escalating tensions dramatically before a ceasefire was reached last week.

Despite the pause in hostilities, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has since pledged to prevent Iran from rebuilding any of its nuclear infrastructure, raising concerns over the renewal of aggression on the country.
