The world could soon see a return of Donald Trump to Facebook.

Facebook’s ‘Independent Content Oversight Board’ is gearing up to announce whether or not the social media giant will once again give Donald Trump a voice on the platform.

The former President’s Facebook and Instagram account was blocked following the US Capitol riots.

Trump was accused of inciting the violence on the January 6 attacks.

Although the ban was initially temporary, it was later changed to an indefinite suspension.

At the time, CEO Mark Zuckerberg agreed with the board saying, “the risks of allowing the president to continue to use Facebook during this period were simply too great.”

The Board says last month it had received almost ten thousand public responses concerning Trump’s indefinite suspension from Facebook and Instagram.

The Oversight Board will announce its decision on the case concerning former US President Trump on its website at https://t.co/NNQ9YCrcrh on May 5, 2021 at approximately 9:00 a.m. EDT.

In a tweet, the oversight board says it will announce the binding decision later this week.

Israel seeks to damage Iran’s Fordow facility before halting operations; Trump suggests US knows Khamenei’s location, avoids assassination.

In Short:
Israel aims to damage Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility and is seeking US assistance, despite uncertainty about American military involvement. Tensions rise as President Trump holds national security meetings, contemplating military options against Iran.

Israel plans to continue its operations against Iran until the Fordow nuclear facility is significantly damaged. The facility, located underground near Qom, is crucial for uranium enrichment.

Israel acknowledges that its own military capabilities cannot reach the depths of Fordow, but it is relying on the United States for support.

Israel’s National Security Advisor, Tzachi Hanegbi, indicated ongoing discussions with US officials but expressed uncertainty regarding US involvement in military actions.

Iran’s nuclear weapon

Many in Israel and the West suspect that Fordow is part of Iran’s nuclear weapon development, a claim that Iran denies.

President Donald Trump left the G7 summit early due to this ongoing conflict and convened a national security meeting at the White House.

The meeting, which lasted nearly two hours, included key security figures such as CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

Reports suggest that Trump is considering the use of a “bunker buster” bomb against Fordow.
