"Sanders Urges Congress to Halt US Military Aid to Israel Amid Conflict"

Senator Bernie Sanders has called on Congress to reject a proposed $10.1 billion in military aid for Israel, criticizing the "grossly disproportionate" and "immoral" military response by Israeli forces to Hamas attacks. He highlighted the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza, with high casualty numbers, widespread displacement, and severe destruction of housing and infrastructure. Sanders has previously voted against the aid package and has written to both Senate colleagues and President Biden to express his opposition to funding what he deems as Israel's brutal war against the Palestinian people.
