"The Trump administration has reportedly rescinded a policy created during former US president Joe Biden's administration that could have potentially restricted aid to Israel at the urging of progressive Democrats." The policy, known as National Security Memorandum-20, required countries receiving weapons from the US to commit in writing not to target civilians or restrict humanitarian aid. Progressive Democrats had pushed for the policy to curb US military assistance to Israel, but a State Department report issued after the memo did not find evidence of misuse of aid by Israel, angering the lawmakers.
