The Abraham Accords Defense Against Terror Act aims to enhance security assistance for countries in the Middle East and North Africa. Its primary policy is to work with allies and partners to safeguard freedom of navigation, protect critical infrastructure, uphold international law, and protect United States citizens from threats posed by Iran and Iran-aligned entities . The bill authorizes the Secretary of State to identify countries that have normalized diplomatic relations with the State of Israel and are engaged in regional security cooperation against these threats. For these identified countries, the Secretary can approve the sale, lease, export, or transfer of defense articles and services through an expedited approval process . This process requires the President to submit a certification to Congress at least 15 days prior to approval, detailing how the assistance furthers U.S. policy and outlining steps to prevent sensitive U.S. technology from being acquired by China or Russia. Furthermore, the Act mandates the Secretary of State to submit a strategy to Congress every 60 days on the implementation of this section. This strategy must include an overview of security threats from Iran, an assessment of metrics for policy implementation, challenges to interoperability, and a description of pending defense sales and recommendations to improve delivery timelines. The bill defines "Iran-aligned entity" to include groups like Hezbollah and the Houthis . Crucially, a rule of construction ensures that nothing in the Act will adversely affect Israel's qualitative military edge .
