Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Israel has been the largest recipient of massive foreign aid from the United States since its founding, receiving about $351 billion (in dollars) in total economic and military aid.

The report said Israel received $216 billion in military aid and $81 billion in economic aid from the United States from 1946 to 2023, bringing the total to $297 billion.
