US Envoy Clarifies Israel's Non-Participation in US Food Distribution Plan in Gaza
ai generated text
Washington's ambassador to Israel states that Israel's role would be to provide "necessary military security," suggesting a separation between the two aspects of the plan.
This mechanism appears practically unfeasible, incompatible with humanitarian principles and will create serious insecurity risks, all while failing to meet Israel's obligations under international law.
It is impossible to replace UNRWA in a place like Gaza. We are the largest humanitarian organisation.
It will enable aid to go directly to the people. Hamas must not be allowed to get their hands on it.
If there wasn't a humanitarian crisis, there wouldn't be an effort to try to deal with it. So the answer is, obviously yes, there is a humanitarian crisis.
Everyone who's been saying there's a crisis, I expect them to step up and to now join the effort to resolve it.
President Trump has made very clear that one of the most urgent things that needs to happen is humanitarian aid into Gaza, and he has tasked all of his team to do everything possible to accelerate that and to as expeditiously as possible get humanitarian aid in, to the people.
The idea of getting aid is very important, but how aid is delivered is equally important. And there are massive red flags all over the place for this plan.
