US ships thousands of tanks, M1 Abrams, and military hardware to the Philippines.


The United States ships dozens of tanks, and military hardware, including M1 Abrams, to the Philippines.

The transfer of M1 Abrams tanks to the Philippines intensifies fighting even as Biden tries to prevent a wider confrontation.


The US sent a package last week that included up to $200 million in new military aid for the Philippines, coinciding with the arrival of the Abrams tanks in the country. According to the Pentagon, the package includes 155mm and 105mm rounds, artillery munitions for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS), anti-tank missiles from TOW, and weapons for air defense such as the AIM-9 Sidewinder missile.
