U.S. Resuming Delivery of 500-Pound Bombs to Israel
---------------------------------------------------

The Biden administration is resuming the shipment of 500-pound bombs to
Israel after a two-month pause and intense pressure by Israeli
officials. This comes despite the continued Israeli carnage in Gaza,
which has now killed close to 39,000 Palestinians, according to the
Ministry of Health, though the true toll is much higher. The resumption
of shipments of 2,000-pound U.S. bombs is reportedly still under review.
