Gantz will likely ask for military assistance from US, analyst says
Omar Ashour, a professor of security and military studies at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, says Benny Gantz during his visit to the US will likely ask for more military assistance to bolster Israel’s ammunition stockpiles.
“If some sort of a truce happens or was successful, I think what we will see is a bit more of reconstruction of forces, repairing of some of the armoured vehicles and also rearming them to be much more effective in the next round,” Ashour told Al Jazeera.
The visit by Gantz, who is expected to meet senior US administration officials, comes as US Vice President Harris called for an “immediate” pause in the fighting.
