The Trump administration is seeking congressional approval to sell nearly $6 billion in weapons to Israel, the Wall Street Journal reported. The proposed sales include a deal worth $3.8 billion for 30 AH-64 Apache helicopters and a $1.9 billion deal for 3,250 infantry assault vehicles for the Israeli army, the WSJ said, citing people familiar with the matter. The weapons likely would not be delivered for two to three years, the WSJ cited one person.
