    14 aid trucks out of the 500 that used to cross daily to provide aid.

    During a humanitarian crisis only 2% of the aid is being made available.

    If they want to fight Hamas great. Let the civilians leave. Then do all the fighting you want. Keeping the civilians bottled up, to put pressure on the Hamas government, is just another form of collective punishment, increasing the human suffering

      Well, Israel is certainly not going to let them in, so the only other option is Egypt. They don’t want them either and refuse to let any in for various reasons, so that’s not happening either. Instead Israel decided to let them all get to the south part of the strip and seek protection there for now.

        The south part of Gaza still being bombed. The South part of Gaza doesn’t have water, doesn’t have food, doesn’t have electricity.

        There is no protection in the South part of Gaza

        Bottling up the civilians, to inflict more damage on a government, is unconscionable. And we’re seeing it happen right now
