DEPARTMENT OF STATE

[Public Notice: 11682]


Determination Under Section 506(A)(1) of the Foreign Assistance 
Act of 1961 To Provide Immediate Military Assistance to the Lebanese 
Armed Forces

    Pursuant to the authority vested in me by section 506(a)(1) of the 
Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (FAA) (22 U.S.C. 2318(a)(1)) and 
Presidential Delegation of Authority dated September 7, 2021, I hereby 
determine that an unforeseen emergency exists which requires immediate 
military assistance to the Lebanese Armed Forces. I further determine 
that these requirements cannot be met under the authority of the Arms 
Export Control Act or any other provision of law.
    I, therefore, direct the drawdown of up to $22 million in defense 
articles and services of the Department of Defense under the authority 
of section 506(a)(1) of the FAA to provide immediate assistance to the 
Lebanese Armed Forces. The Department of State will coordinate 
implementation of this drawdown.
    This determination shall be reported to Congress and published in 
the Federal Register.

    Dated: September 22, 2021.
Antony J. Blinken,
Secretary of State.
