Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katj on Thursday ordered an action plan to make an action plan within 48 hours, so that an action plan could be made within 48 hours to prevent Hamas from seizing humanitarian aid entering North Gaza.
He said, “Today’s information was received that Hamas is once again taking control of humanitarian aid … and is stealing from the citizens, the Prime Minister and the Defense Minister directed the IDF to present … An action plan to stop Hamas from taking help,” he said in a joint statement.
According to Israel’s Channel 12 News, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has already suspended the aid delivery until its plan is submitted.
Finance Minister Bezelle Smotrich allegedly threatened to resign until Gaza was stopped.
Former Prime Minister Nftali Bennett also weighed a video on Taula, X/Twitter on Wednesday night showing the masked gunmen commanding the aid.
“This video was filmed today,” he wrote. “It shows Hamas gunmen who have once again controlled food trucks … The fighters in the field explained to me that these are current orders, trucks without inspection … shameful.”
Meanwhile, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) called the United Nations publicly condemn the assistance workers and to help develop a new system to give food to the Palestinian families directly to the Palestinian families. In a letter sent to United Nations Secretary -General Antonio Guterres on Tuesday, the group appealed for a partnership that would bypass Hamas and ensure that the aid reaches the citizens.
Since starting operations on 26 May, GHF on Wednesday distributed 44,094,622 foods, including 2.4 million.
Israel’s press service reported in November that 85 percent of the trucks associated with Hamas and criminal gangs were kidnapped to enter strips with food, water, medicine and other human goods. TPS-IL learned that Hamas provided distribution lines to these groups to ensure that humanitarian aid especially reaches Hamas. In return, these gangs receive money, food and vouchers. Hamas also pays $ 10,000 per month to these gangs to maintain the outpost.
The Israeli government stopped the entry of human aid in early March. According to the IDF, the move quickly stopped the revenue stream of Hamas, in which some gunmen and operatives did not get salaries.
Hamas Palestinians are making their way to distribution centers, and strip residents accused the terrorist group of violence of deliberately disrupting assistance.
At least 1,180 people were killed, and 252 Israel and foreigners were held hostage on the Israeli communities near the Gaza border on 7 October. Of the remaining 50 hostages, around 30, around 30 is considered dead. (ANI/TPS)
