Good news for me that the Canning Town - Beckton shuttle is being reintroduced, and during the peaks as well!

Is this to meet post-Covid traffic return?

It sounds like (especially on Stratford/Canary Wharf) a return to the pre-COVID timetable. I note the comment at the end of the press release about some routes having shorter trains, which was the case on this route pre-COVID, so I wonder if it will apply again.
The only downside of this is at All Saint's south bound the short trains stop at the fair end of the platform from the access stairs.

There aren't enough units to run all these services with three-car trains. My guess is that Stratford-Canary Wharf and Canning Town-Beckton will be operated as two-car trains with the rest as three-car.

Woolwich to Stratford Intl might, I think it very unlikely that Woolwich to Bank will.

Woolwich Arsenal - Stratford International appears to be operated by three-car trains, while it looks like the Beckton - Tower Gateway service has dropped to two-car trains. The Beckton - Canning Town shuttle also appears to be two-car trains.

Stratford - Canary Wharf has gone back to two-car trains as it was pre-COVID. I'm surprised by the Tower Gateway cut back, though I wonder if this is because of units out of service - I did see one going in to the depot sadly covered in graffiti on Monday.
