According to him, the first shipments of aid began to arrive last week and have been sent daily since then.

"The assistance consists of the means requested by Israel, including precision-guided munitions such as JDAM, SDB, 155-millimeter artillery shells," Ryder said at a briefing.

He added that the Israeli army is also receiving anti-missiles for the Iron Dome from the United States.

Axios previously reported that the Pentagon intends to transfer tens of thousands of 155 mm artillery shells to Israel, which were originally reserved for Ukraine a few months ago, ammunition taken from "US emergency stockpiles."
