The US Senate has made significant progress towards passing a foreign aid bill worth over $95 billion, featuring crucial assistance for Ukraine and Israel. On Sunday, the Senate voted in favor of advancing this vital legislation, garnering support from 18 Republicans in spite of opposition from former US President Donald Trump. This development comes after Republicans had blocked a larger bill, which included a bipartisan border deal.
While the final passage of the bill remains uncertain, if approved by the Senate, its fate in the House of Representatives under Speaker Mike Johnson's leadership is unknown. The foreign aid bill is expected to encompass humanitarian support for individuals in Gaza, the West Bank, and Ukraine.
