The U.S. approves a $5 billion military sale to Egypt, including tanks and missiles, to enhance regional security.

The U.S. has approved a $5 billion military sale to Egypt, including M1A1 Abrams tanks and Hellfire missiles, to bolster Egypt's security and strategic partnership in the Middle East. This sale, part of a larger aid package since Egypt's 1979 peace treaty with Israel, comes amid human rights concerns and Egypt's role in mediating the Gaza crisis. The U.S. also authorized smaller military sales to Taiwan, Morocco, and Greece, though Congress could theoretically block these sales, which it rarely does.
