The United States has spent $22.76bn in support of Israel’s war on Gaza and operations against the Houthis in Yemen, according to a report by Brown University’s Watson Institute.
The $17.9bn in military aid to Israel since the war in Gaza started a year ago is the highest annual total ever, according to the report.
The aid to Israel is a mix of military financing, weapons sales, and transfers from US weapons stockpiles, according to the report, which is part of the institute’s Costs of War project.
A large part of the US-delivered arsenal is munitions, the report said, including artillery shells and 2,000-pound (907kg) bombs.
Unlike the US’s publicly documented military aid to Ukraine, details of some US military shipments to Israel are more elusive, so the $17.9 bn figure is incomplete, according to Brown researchers.
