The Biden administration has used an emergency authority to greenlight the sale to Israel of about 14,000 tank shells without congressional review, the Pentagon said on Dec. 9.
Using an Arms Export Control Act emergency declaration, Secretary of State Antony Blinken approved the sale on Dec. 8 of thousands of 120mm M830A1 high explosive anti-tank multi-purpose with tracer (MPAT) tank cartridges and related equipment to the Israeli military, according to the Defense Security Cooperation Agency.
