Dalam Angka
The US has approved a $5 billion (approximately 88 trillion Rupiah) arms sale to Saudi Arabia, including bombs, guidance devices, and other equipment. This decision follows repeated attacks on Saudi Arabia during the ongoing conflict between the US-Israel and Iran. The sale is raising security concerns in the region.
The package includes precision-guided munitions and support systems aimed at strengthening the operational capabilities of the Royal Saudi Air Force. Official notification has been made for Congressional review; the approval process may take several weeks. Critics argue the delivery could further inflame the Yemen war and regional tensions.
The Biden administration defends the sale as strengthening strategic partnerships and enhancing resilience against shared threats. However, human rights groups highlight the risk of use against civilian targets. The final approval is seen as part of the US policy to expand its military footprint in the Middle East.
