According to the agreement, the deal includes supplying the Israeli army with a large number of F-35 and F15 fighter aircraft as well as Apache helicopters.
The officials said the deal is of an exceptional size as the war continues in Gaza and fighting in the north with the Lebanese Hezbollah Resistance group.
They said the Israeli regime requested priority from the Americans for the supplies, given the development of the war in Gaza.
The US has declared its support for Israel since the beginning of the regime’s genocidal war in the Gaza Strip on Oct. 7 last year.
On Oct. 25, the results of a survey conducted by CBS News in the US revealed that 52% of Americans oppose their government sending weapons to Israel.
Israel has launched a deadly offensive on the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7, killing at least 25,900 Palestinians and injuring 64,110 others. Nearly 1,200 Israelis are believed to have been killed in the Hamas attack.
