The US announced it was sending military support to Israel and strengthening its naval and air force presence in the region amid widespread condemnation of the Hamas attack on Israeli civilians, and as the UN warned the region was on a “dangerous precipice”.

Joe Biden told Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday that “additional assistance for the Israel Defence Forces is now on its way to Israel with more to follow over the coming days”, according to a White House account of the conversation. The US defence secretary, Lloyd Austin, said the military support would include “equipment and resources, including munitions”.

Austin also announced that the USS Gerald Ford aircraft carrier and its strike group of warships including guided missile destroyers would be deployed farther east in the Mediterranean while US air force squadrons of fighter planes around the region would be augmented, in what he portrayed as a show of deterrence.

“The US maintains ready forces globally to further reinforce this deterrence posture if required,” the defence secretary said.

Great. Another proxy war then. :-(
