Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed that no one in Gaza is starving.
He said: “There is no policy of starvation in Gaza, and there is no starvation in Gaza. We enable humanitarian aid throughout the duration of the war to enter Gaza – otherwise, there would be no Gazans.”
But apparently even Netanyahu’s biggest backer doesn’t believe his claims….
During a phone call on July 28 with the Israeli leader, US President Donald Trump reportedly shouted at Netanyahu for attempting to downplay the reports of starvation.
The PM’s office however has dismissed the who story as “complete fake news.”
RT reports: Netanyahu has publicly claimed that “there is no starvation” in the Palestinian enclave, which is being blockaded by Israeli military forces, despite multiple claims to the contrary from medical staff in Gaza.
During a recent trip to the UK, Trump pushed back, telling journalists the starvation is real.
According to the outlet, Netanyahu insisted during the call that allegations of widespread hunger in Gaza were fabricated by the militant group Hamas, but Trump interrupted him, raising his voice and stating that his aides had shown him evidence to the contrary.
The conversation was reportedly initiated at Netanyahu’s request, but the exchange ended up being “mostly one-way,” with Trump doing most of the talking, according to one source.Netanyahu’s office denied the claim, calling it “complete fake news” in a brief statement.
NBC News suggested that Trump has taken a personal interest in the issue due to US support for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), an Israeli-affiliated organization conducting limited relief work in the enclave since May. The foundation has been shunned by the UN, which operates its own aid network in Gaza and has accused Israel of obstructing food deliveries.
This week, a group of UN experts criticized the GHF, calling it “an utterly disturbing example of how humanitarian relief can be exploited for covert military and geopolitical agendas.” They accused the foundation of operating as a “tangle of Israeli intelligence, US contractors and ambiguous non-governmental entities,” rather than a legitimate relief agency. The UN estimates that nearly 1,400 people have been killed in Gaza while searching for food.
Israel is currently preparing for a military operation to occupy Gaza City, marking yet another escalation in the conflict.
