BBC, May 2021: Israel-Gaza: How much money does Israel get from the US?

How much aid does the US give?
- In 2020, the US gave $3.8bn (£2.7bn) in aid to Israel - part of a long-term, yearly commitment made under the Obama administration. Almost all of this aid was for military assistance.
How does this compare with other countries?
- Since World War Two, Israel has been the largest overall recipient of US foreign aid.
