Senate rejects Sanders' bid to block $675M arms sale to Israel, exposing Democratic rift.

The U.S. Senate rejected Senator Bernie Sanders' attempt to block arms sales to Israel, including $675 million in bombs and 20,000 assault rifles, despite growing Democratic opposition. The vote highlighted a growing split within the Democratic party over support for Israel, with 27 Democrats opposing the sale of assault rifles and 24 opposing bomb sales. This opposition comes amid widespread hunger and suffering in Gaza, with the UN warning of a potential famine.
