According to RT, on October 8, US Republican Party representative Marjorie Taylor Greene said that Washington must cooperate with Israel to investigate the origin of US-made weapons used by the Palestinian militant group Hamas in the ongoing attack against the country.

The female congresswoman alleged that the weapons used by Hamas could have originated from Ukraine or Afghanistan, and the confiscated weapons should be examined to determine their origin.

“We need to work with Israel to track the serial numbers on any American weapons used by Hamas against Israel,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote on Twitter. “Are they from Afghanistan? Are they from Ukraine? Most likely both.”

So far, there is no hard evidence to support such claims. However, at least one unverified video circulating online purports to show a Hamas fighter “thanking” the Ukrainians for the weapons while “showing off” US-made weapons, including a standard M136 anti-tank grenade launcher.

According to RT, the US has poured large amounts of military aid into Ukraine over the past year and a half, supporting Kiev in its fight against Moscow. Ukraine has faced numerous accusations of misuse and sale of weapons, with various offers, from handguns, to mines and anti-tank guided missiles, constantly appearing on the “black market”.

In Afghanistan, the entire arsenal of the now-disarmed army, created with direct and years-long involvement from the Pentagon, fell into Taliban hands after Islamist forces took over the country in August 2021.
