Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Sunday approved the resumption of humanitarian aid into Gaza due to intense international pressure on the issue.
According to a Kan News report on Monday morning, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar said at the meeting: “We need to bring in aid immediately. There’s enormous pressure in the European Union and threats of sanctions, also from the Americans. A series of foreign ministers spoke with me about the issue. Democratic and Republican members of Congress have also approached the Israeli ambassador to the United States about the issue.”
Catching flak? Should be shrapnel instead.
Representatives of the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) said: “There is no starvation in Gaza, but the warehouses of the aid organizations are emptying and people are hoarding in homes. We are approaching the red line. We could enter a problematic situation.”
When the branch ostensibly charged with the wellbeing of Palestinians turns a blind eye, I haven’t much hope even if PM Netenyahu permits aid deliveries.
Was disappointed to find it was only rhetorical flak
