Iran Press/ Middle East: Davoud Shahab stated that Israel is a regime based on violence, murder, and racism, which the United States and the West have supported.
He said US weapons are a tool used by the Zionist regime to kill civilians and children in Gaza, the West Bank, and Al-Quds.
He stressed that as long as Washington's arms support continues, there would be no security and stability in the region.
Hamas Spokesman, Hazem Qasim, stated: "The US decision encourages the occupying regime to continue its aggression against our nation and its sanctuaries, and increases its terrorist acts against the Palestinians, and occupation of their lands."
He said the move would also increase tensions in the region and the Zionist regime's rebellion against international laws and decisions.
He noted that the US arms, political, and financial support of the Zionist regime had made the United States a partner in the Zionist aggression against the Palestinian people.
On Friday, the US State Department agreed to sell 18 CH-53K heavy-lift cargo helicopters to the Zionist regime for a contract worth $ 3.4 billion./
