US Military Aid to Israel to Be Halved, Phased Out by 2031

US military aid to Israel will be halved and phased out over five years, concluding by 2031, according to a new security memorandum. This follows a statement by President Donald Trump suggesting aid would end in 2026. The annual aid package will be reduced from $3.3 billion to $1.65 billion for five years after 2028, before ceasing. Funding for air defense systems will increase. The new agreement requires approval from the current US Congress by December 2026.
