Trump Ships 1,800 MK-84 Bombs to Israel, Reversing Biden's Hold
Jan 26, 2025, 06:15 AM
President Donald Trump has instructed the Pentagon to lift a hold imposed during President Joe Biden's administration on the supply of 2,000-pound bombs to Israel, according to a White House source cited by Reuters on Saturday. The hold had been implemented over concerns about civilian casualties in Gaza. Israeli officials told Axios that 1,800 MK-84 bombs, previously stored in the United States, will be shipped to Israel by sea in the coming days. When asked about the decision, Trump stated, 'Because they paid for them.' The move reverses the prior administration's policy that had paused the delivery of these munitions.
