Families of Israeli captives obstructed on Thursday the entry of humanitarian aid to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip for the second day in a row, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported.
According to Haaretz, the families, along with right-wing activists, blocked the passage of aid trucks to Gaza through the Kerem Shalom (Karem Abu Salem) crossing.
Protesters reportedly closed the road to the crossing and prevented trucks loaded with humanitarian aid from passing.
“We are here today to show (Israeli) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he can stop the trucks, just as we are stopping them now,” Dany Elgart, a brother of one of the captives, reportedly said, adding:
“I call on all citizens: come to the checkpoint and stop this humanitarian aid with your bodies. It is not humanitarian at all because it only serves one segment of the population there. The hostages there do not receive any humanitarian aid.”
The aid comes from abroad and is transported through Israel, which announced the closure of crossings to the Gaza Strip on October 7, according to Anadolu news agency.
On October 9, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant announced a “complete siege” of the Gaza Strip. “We are fighting human animals, and we are acting accordingly,” Gallant said.

Who currently have operated Gaza as an open air concentration camp and implemented a system of apartheid. Hamas in not “inhumane” they are a correct reaction to a population besieged by the world’s new Nazis backed by a capitalist world order.
Until Israel is wiped off the map, no one will be safe from their holocaust on the Palestinians.
Don’t coddle people, I condemn those who condemn Hamas.
