Simply put, this is a relation between the two issues, in which one depends in some way on the other.  Eg. you have tickets:

  • XYZ-1 Research ABC 
  • XYZ-2 Implement ABC

You could say that XYZ-2 is blocked by XYZ-1, because you don't want to start implementation of feature ABC until research is done.

Best,
Sebastian.

Thanks Sebastian for the clear answer of this.

This is very much clear now.
