Auxiliary funding for the Iron Dome returned to the US Congress.
Members of the US Congress will vote on Thursday to determine whether to maintain or eliminate the $ 1 billion budget for the Zionist regime to replace the used Iron Dome missiles.
A day after the removal of the Washington emergency aid clause to Tel Aviv for the “Iron Dome” defense systems from the US military budget plan, the media reported that the clause had returned to the court.
According to Reuters, the chairman of the House Appropriations Committee on Wednesday evening (local time) once again presented a bill to Congress, under which the $ 1 billion budget to replace the used Iron Dome missiles will return to the US military budget. .
The bill is scheduled to be put to a vote in Congress on Thursday (local time), but a number of Democrats have said they will vote against it.
According to the report, the United States is currently providing $ 1.6 billion annually to the Zionist regime for the production and supply of Iron Dome systems.
According to Reuters, the new plan was introduced by Rosa Dolauro, a Republican member of the US Congress, under which $ 1 billion of the US military budget will be used to fill the empty dome of the Iron Dome in the recent war with the Gaza Strip.
Just yesterday, just hours before the vote on the budget bill in the US House of Representatives, some members of Congress announced that they would not vote on the budget if it included the issue of emergency assistance to the Iron Dome system.
Following this opposition, this part of the budget law has been removed and will be examined in the defense budget law, which will be put to a vote in a few months.
The removal of the Iron Dome section from the US budget law section means a significant delay in the transfer of additional aid to Israel. It is a rare occurrence in which the US Congress does not agree to help Israel for defense purposes.
The destruction of a large part of the missiles of the Zionist regime’s Iron Dome defense systems, which were fired during the 12-day war with the Gaza Strip to intercept the rockets of the resistance groups and, of course, was up to 90% unsuccessful, targeted the pro-Israel child-killing Americans. Is worried.
Earlier, US Assistant Secretary of State for Middle East Affairs Joey Hood stressed the need to replace the missiles used by Israeli defense systems in the 12-day war in Gaza as soon as possible.
