đ¨ Abstract
The U.S. State Department approved a potential $346 million weapons sale to Nigeria to enhance regional security. The approval is for munitions, bombs, and rockets requested by Nigeria, citing resurgence in Boko Haram attacks. The conflict has caused significant civilian loss and displacement. The proposed sale aims to bolster Nigeria's defense against terrorist groups and illicit trafficking, with no impact on U.S. defense readiness. Nigeria has previously acquired U.S. military equipment in the past decade.
