The Trump administration has instructed the Pentagon to lift a hold imposed during President Biden's term on the supply of 2,000-pound MK-84 bombs to Israel. According to reports, 1,800 MK-84 bombs, which had been stored in the United States for over six months, are now set to be delivered to Israel by sea in the coming days. The hold had been imposed by the Biden administration in response to concerns about civilian casualties in Gaza. Israeli officials confirmed that they were notified of the decision on Friday, though the exact timing remains unclear. The White House has not yet commented on the matter.
