Netanyahu signals moving ahead with Trump's Gaza plan as Israel receives unblocked US shipment of heavy bombs

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed support for President Trump's proposal to transfer the Palestinian population out of Gaza, calling it the only viable plan for the region. Netanyahu denied claims of ethnic cleansing and stated that any emigration from Gaza should be voluntary. The comments raise concerns for the fragile Gaza ceasefire. In addition, Israel has received a shipment of heavy bombs from the US, initially blocked by the Biden administration, that Trump greenlit. The MK-84 bombs can cause significant damage and were refused for export due to fears of their impact in the densely populated Gaza Strip.
