Recent reports have highlighted the deep involvement of U.S.-manufactured weapons in the conflict in Gaza. A U.S.-made bomb was dropped on a prominent U.S.-funded humanitarian agency by a U.S.-funded military from a U.S.-built plane in January. This incident has sparked discussions about the accountability of the U.S. and its role in the conflict, with concerns over the IDF's obfuscation. Investigations have revealed that the U.S. has been sending smaller packages of weapons, under the $25M threshold, to Israel, thereby avoiding congressional scrutiny. These weapons were pre-positioned on Israeli territory, indicating a level of preparation and intent. Furthermore, a UN investigation found that U.S. and UK-manufactured weapons or parts may have been used in an attack on British doctors working for British and American charities in Gaza. In response to international concerns, Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant signed a letter to the Biden administration assuring that Israel will use U.S. weapons according to international law and allow U.S.-supported humanitarian aid into Gaza.

.@connor_echols : When a U.S.-made bomb slams into Gaza, there’s a real chance that it started the day in an American facility in Israel, managed by American soldiers, and governed by American law. https://t.co/lFQV8zWEuq
