Gemini, "Since its founding, the U.S. has provided Israel with approximately $318 billion in total financial assistance, making it the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign aid. This aid includes both military and economic assistance. Under a 10-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed in 2016, the U.S. committed to providing $3.8 billion annually to Israel through 2028. This includes $3.3 billion in Foreign Military Financing (FMF) grants and $500 million for cooperative missile defense programs (like Iron Dome, David's Sling, and Arrow systems). However, since the October 7, 2023, attacks and subsequent conflict, the U.S. has provided additional emergency supplemental military assistance to Israel beyond the annual MOU terms. For example: In 2024, Congress approved a total of $12.5 billion in aid for Israel, which included the $3.8 billion from the MOU plus additional funds for defense and missile systems. Reports also indicate that from October 2023 to October 2024, the U.S. spent at least $17.9 billion on military aid to Israel, a record amount for a single year."
