Trump makes 'BOMBSHELL' Israel announcement: 'Severe BLOW'

Ending U.S. military aid by year's end would be a "severe blow to Israel's security," Israeli opposition leader Yair Golan said, according to Fox News correspondent Jonathan Hunt's report from Tel Aviv.

The segment adds Israeli political reaction and a sharp difference in timetables to Donald Trump's announcement. Hunt reports that Benjamin Netanyahu had previously discussed gradually phasing out American aid over a decade, rather than ending it within months.

In audio from Fox & Friends, Trump presents the cutoff as a reflection of Israel's ability to manage without the assistance. "If they did need it, I would say keep it going," he says. In another excerpt, he states: "We were giving them 4 billion. We are. But it gets cut off at the end of the year."

The report, which drew about 900,000 views since yesterday, places the announcement alongside renewed military tensions with Iran. Hunt reports that U.S. strikes on Qeshm Island followed Iranian fire at an American military aircraft, while diplomatic efforts continued.

The aid discussion turns on two distinct positions: Trump's argument that Israel no longer needs the money, and Golan's warning about the security consequences of ending it.
