Proposed Legislation Sparks Debate Over US-Israel Defence Cooperation
US lawmakers are pushing to remove a proposed legislation that would expand US-Israeli military cooperation, citing concerns over national security interests. The provision, known as Section 219, would establish a defence technology cooperation initiative between the two countries, covering areas such as artificial intelligence and cyberwarfare. The initiative could give Israel a more deeply embedded role in American defence research, manufacturing, and procurement, according to Unknown Source.
