The package would provide additional aid to Israel after an airstrike in Iran that the US attributed to it.

A key procedural vote gained approval on Friday to move ahead with the bill, with the Democrats joining Republicans in a rare assist, Associated Press (AP) reported.

With the latest procedural obstacle cleared, the bill could be approved by the House this weekend and then sent to the Senate.

The House is expected to vote on Saturday on the aid legislation that provides $61bn for the conflict in Ukraine, including $23bn to replenish US weapons, $26bn for Israel, including $9.1bn for humanitarian needs, and $8.12bn for the Indo-Pacific. If passed, it would then go back to the Senate.
