The United States has provided a substantial amount of military aid to Israel, totaling approximately $17.9 billion in the first year of the Gaza conflict and an additional $3.8 billion in the following year, with some aid already delivered and more scheduled.

This aid has played a crucial role in enabling Israel's military operations, as the US's involvement in Middle Eastern security efforts has increased since October 2023.

Amid ongoing indirect negotiations between Israeli and Hamas officials in Egypt, Hamas has recently accepted a US-backed proposal, indicating a potential shift towards diplomacy.

Israeli military actions have led to the destruction of 25 hospitals and the closure of over 100 health centers, exacerbating a healthcare crisis marked by overcrowded hospitals and dwindling medical resources.

The conflict has deepened the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, with widespread suffering and infrastructure collapse reported amid relentless hostilities.

Since the start of the war, over 67,000 Palestinians have died due to Israeli bombings, including many medical personnel and children, highlighting the severe humanitarian toll.

The main report on US support was produced by the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, an organization often accused of being anti-Israel, a charge it denies.

The US State Department has not commented on the aid figures since October 2023, and questions about the assistance are referred to the Pentagon, which oversees only part of the aid.

Additional studies estimate that the US has spent around $10 billion on security aid and military operations across the broader Middle East, including strikes on Iran and Yemen, since October 2023.

This regional spending is estimated to be between $9.65 billion and $12 billion, covering military actions in Iran and Yemen, as part of the broader US military involvement.

These reports, produced by institutions like Brown University’s Costs of War Project and the Quincy Institute, highlight the significant financial backing for Israel and regional military operations.

The US has supplied approximately $8.12 billion worth of weapons, $5 billion in defense systems, and an additional $4.4 billion from military reserves, underscoring the scale of US involvement in the conflict.
