Original Note:
Regarding the proposed note: Light in this context does not refer to illumination but to payload. Israel has been recently criticized for using heavy bombs (2000lbs) in civilian areas. Therefore the use of "light bombs" refers to payloads such as 265lb and 551lb. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/03/world/middleeast/israel-bomb-jabaliya.html https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/11/3/analysis-israels-gaza-bombing-campaign-is-proving-costly-for-israel
