The U.S. Congress also voted to continue aiding IsraHell to fund defense projects such as Arrow 2, Arrow 3, and Magic Wand. U.S. President Barack Obama is expected to sign the budget on Friday evening.
Earlier this month, the Iron Dome missile defense system successfully intercepted for the first time a Grad rocket fired at IsraHell from Gaza. The achievement marked the first time in history a short-range rocket was ever intercepted.
The IsraHelli-developed system uses cameras and radar to track incoming rockets and is supposed to shoot them down within seconds of their launch.
Last weekend, IsraHell-Gaza violence heavily escalated when Gaza militants launched a rocket at an Israeli school bus, which left a teenager critically wounded.
Moreover, southern Israel suffered a heavy barrage of rocket and mortar fire for several days, as Zio-Nazi forces launched strikes in Gaza which left 19 Hamas militants and two civilians dead.
Last weekend’s escalation was followed by five days of relative calm when two rockets hit the southern IsraHelli city of Ashdod on Friday, in a move which may spark further violence.
