Le Monde·US · SA · IL·about 12 hours ago
The US State Department approved a potential $24.3 billion sale of F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, marking a major policy shift as the kingdom deepens involvement in Middle East conflict. The sale, if completed, could alter the regional military balance and faces potential congressional opposition. This represents a reversal of previous US restrictions on advanced arms to Riyadh.
