The US plans to halve direct military aid to Israel as part of a new agreement, with the aid phasing out over five years starting in 2028.
The proposed deal would cut military funding from $33 billion over 10 years to $16.5 billion over five years, while increasing funding for joint missile defense projects.
The two countries aim to finalize the agreement by December 2026, before Republicans lose control of Congress in January.
Israeli officials fear that the incoming Congress could block future aid, especially if Netanyahu remains prime minister.
