Quick Glance: Senate Passes $95 Billion Aid Package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan

The Senate has passed a $95 billion aid package for war assistance to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, sending the legislation to President Joe Biden after months of delays and contentious debates over U.S. involvement in foreign wars.

The legislation also includes $26 billion for wartime assistance to Israel and humanitarian relief for the citizens of Gaza, along with $8 billion to counter Chinese threats in Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific.

Senate Republicans and House Republicans collaborated to secure the aid for Ukraine and Israel, emphasizing the potential dire consequences if Russian President Vladimir Putin's aggression goes unchecked.

There was broad congressional support for the aid package, but leaders had to navigate strong opposition from conservatives questioning U.S. involvement in foreign wars and focusing on issues like migration at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Some of the bodies belonged to individuals killed during the hospital siege, while others were victims when Israeli forces raided the hospital.

The discovery of the graves highlights the urgency of a ceasefire, the end of the conflict, improved access for humanitarian aid, the protection of hospitals, and the release of Israeli hostages.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated on April 21 that he would oppose sanctions being imposed on any Israeli military units for alleged rights violations, following reports of Washington planning such a move.

Blinken mentioned on April 19 that he had made 'determinations' regarding accusations of Israel violating a set of US laws prohibiting military assistance to individuals or security force units committing gross human rights violations.

Workers from the Gaza Civil Defense announced the discovery of a mass grave with almost 300 bodies at a hospital in the southern city of Khan Younis in Gaza, subsequent to the withdrawal of Israeli forces earlier this month.

Colonel Yamen Abu Suleiman, the Director of Civil Defense in Khan Younis, informed CNN on Monday that 73 bodies were found in the courtyard of the Nasser Medical Complex, bringing the total number to 283.

It is believed that some bodies were discovered with bound hands and feet, along with indications of field executions. The specific circumstances of their deaths, whether they were buried alive or executed, remain unclear.

The IDF has stated that they transported multiple bodies from Gaza to Israel for DNA testing before repatriating the remains in containers. The region surrounding the Nasser Medical Complex experienced heavy bombardment and conflict during January and February.

Quick Glance: Israeli Military Intelligence Chief Resigns Over Hamas Attack Failures

The head of Israeli military intelligence resigned due to the failures surrounding Hamas’ unprecedented attack on October 7, marking the first senior resignation in Israel's history.

Maj. Gen. Aharon Haliva’s resignation could trigger additional resignations among Israel’s top security officials in response to the Hamas attack that initiated the Gaza war.

Haliva, alongside other military and security leaders, were expected to address the evident failures leading up to and during October 7.

Israel and its esteemed security forces were caught entirely off guard by the Hamas attack on a Jewish holiday, shattering trust in the military. The resignation may contribute to rebuilding some of this trust.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strikes on Rafah Kill 22, Mostly Children, as US Advances Aid Package

Israeli strikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah overnight killed 22 people, including 18 children, as the US House of Representatives approved $13 billion in new Israeli military aid.

However, fears of wider war breaking out in the Middle East have eased somewhat after Iran downplayed Israel’s reported retaliation over its unprecedented missile and drone attack on the country a week ago.

Israel has carried out near-daily air raids on Rafah and vowed to expand its ground offensive against the Hamas militant group to the city on the border with Egypt despite calls for restraint, including from the US.

Tensions have also spiked in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, with Israeli troops killing two Palestinians who attacked a checkpoint with a knife and a gun near the southern West Bank town of Hebron.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strikes in Rafah Kill 22, Mostly Children, as US Advances Aid Package

Israeli strikes in the southern Gaza city of Rafah killed 22 people, including 18 children. The United States is on track to approve billions of dollars of additional military aid to Israel.

The conflict between Israel and Hamas has killed over 34,000 Palestinians, with at least two-thirds being children and women. The devastation in Gaza has left a swath of destruction.

The $26 billion aid package approved by the House of Representatives includes around $9 billion in humanitarian assistance for Gaza, which experts say is on the brink of famine.
