US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says he has signed a declaration to expedite the delivery of approximately $4 billion in military assistance to Israel.

The Trump administration, which took office on January 20, has approved nearly $12 billion in major foreign military sales to Israel, Rubio says in a statement, adding that it “will continue to use all available tools to fulfill America’s longstanding commitment to Israel’s security, including means to counter security threats.”
