The first plane carrying U.S. armaments landed in Israel sometime Tuesday evening, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said. 

The Biden administration began delivering munitions to Israel this week as the country wages war with Hamas terrorist fighters. 

The armaments "are designed to facilitate significant military operations and increase preparedness for other scenarios," the IDF said in a statement. 

"We are grateful for the US backing and assistance to the IDF, and to the State of Israel in general, during this challenging period," the IDF said. "Our common enemies know that the cooperation between our militaries is stronger than ever, and is a key part in ensuring regional security and stability."

The weapons arrived at the Nevatim Airbase in southern Israel. The IDF did not disclose what types of weapons or military equipment it received. 

On Monday, U.S. Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said Congress would need to pass more funding for weapons and military aid to be delivered to both Israel and Ukraine, which has received billions in military assistance amid its war with Russia. 

"The intent is to lean forward in support of Israel," Wormuth said. "But in particular with munitions and the ability to support Israel and Ukraine simultaneously, additional funding is needed to increase our capacity to expand production and then also pay for the munitions themselves."
