The Financial Times is reporting that US President Joe Biden has provisionally approved a $680m weapons sale to Israel, which was conditioned on Israel accepting a ceasefire in Lebanon.
This is not a previously announced weapons package.
The transfer would include JDAMS, which provide precision guidance for "dumb" bombs, as well as hundreds of small-diameter explosives, the Financial Times has reported.
