US 'moving forward' with 500-pound bombs for Israel

The United States is resuming the delivery of 500-pound bombs to Israel after pausing over concerns about the use of 2,000-pound munitions in populated areas. This decision follows a halt in May due to fears related to an Israeli operation near Rafah in Gaza. Despite previous tensions, both sides have indicated progress in resolving differences. The U.S. remains a key military supporter of Israel but has expressed concerns over civilian casualties amid ongoing conflict with Hamas in Gaza.
