Controversial Munition Sparks Concern Over Civilian Casualties
The Trump administration is preparing to sell 2,000-pound bombs to Israel in a multibillion-dollar deal, the largest single sale of the controversial munition in recent years. The pending transfer has raised concerns over civilian casualties, as the munition has been involved in scores of incidents resulting in non-combatant deaths. The sale may set up a potential litmus test for Democrats, according to a US official who spoke to The Washington Post.
