Update: President Trump has lifted President Biden's block on 2,000-pound bombs to Israel just five days into his term. This move occurs during an active ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, facilitating hostage exchanges and humanitarian aid deliveries.
Significance: The lifting of the hold coincides with a dire humanitarian situation in Gaza, where more than 47,000 people have been injured and numerous individuals have been forced to flee their homes. There are fears about the potential harm to civilians should hostilities resume post-ceasefire.
