Trump announces plan to end annual military aid to Israel at end of 2026

Donald Trump said on Fox News on 3 November that the United States would end aid to Israel that he put at roughly $4 billion a year at the close of 2026. He said he had agreed this with Benjamin Netanyahu.

The US president indicated that arms sales could continue. His announcement therefore concerns Washington-funded aid and does not announce an end to all weapons trade.

ABC News and CNN note that the current framework provides $3.8 billion annually through fiscal 2028. Trump did not explain how the cutoff would be implemented. The political announcement does not establish that payments have already stopped.
