In a significant development, Israel has received a shipment of heavy MK-84 bombs from the United States after former President Donald Trump lifted a block on their export, previously imposed by the Biden administration.

Trump's Peace Efforts ? Israel Receives 2000 Pounds Disastrous MK-84 From U.S.

The MK-84, a powerful 2,000-pound unguided bomb capable of penetrating thick concrete and metal, raises concerns due to its wide blast radius, particularly in densely populated areas like Gaza.

The Biden administration initially withheld approval for this shipment, citing concerns about the impact on civilian areas in Gaza. However, after Trump took action last month to release the hold, the shipment was cleared.

Defense Minister Israel Katz hailed the arrival of the bombs, emphasizing their importance for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and the Air Force, and reinforcing the strong alliance between Israel and the United States.

This delivery comes amid mounting concerns about the fragile ceasefire in Gaza, with both sides accusing each other of violations. Meanwhile, Washington has continued to announce billions of dollars in assistance to Israel since the war began.
