57 ADVOCACY GROUPS URGE U.S. SENATE

TO HALT ARMS SALES TO ISRAEL


A coalition of 57 advocacy groups is urging the U.S. Senate to halt weapons sales to Israel, raising concerns over human rights and accountability. Representing civil rights, humanitarian, and faith-based organizations, these groups argue that U.S.-supplied arms contribute to violence against civilians and violate international standards. They advocate for a foreign policy that conditions military aid on ethical considerations, aiming to encourage diplomatic solutions and reduce civilian harm. This movement reflects a growing call within the U.S. for foreign aid to prioritize human rights, potentially reshaping U.S.-Israel relations and setting a precedent for ethically driven military support.
