First plane with ‘advanced’ US ammunition lands in Israel

Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent.

A first transport plane with “advanced” American ammunition landed at the Nevatim airbase in southern Israel this evening, the military says.

The IDF says the ammunition is intended “to enable significant strikes and preparations for additional scenarios.”

“We are grateful for the American support and assistance to the IDF in particular, and to the State of Israel in general, during this challenging period,” the IDF says.

“Our common enemies know that the cooperation between the armies is stronger than ever, and is a key part of ensuring regional security and stability,” the IDF adds.
