I have found a temporary solution also found in the reanmited library

facebook/react-native#31704 (comment)

My temporary fix for this is as follows:

yarn add --dev @babel/plugin-proposal-logical-assignment-operators
Then I had to add it to my babel.config.js:

module.exports = {
  presets: ['module:metro-react-native-babel-preset'],
  plugins: ['@babel/plugin-proposal-logical-assignment-operators'], // I added this line
};

Then I had to do a yarn start --reset-cache and it fixed the problem.
