Insulting and dangerous’: Israel warns allies sending aid to Gaza will only ‘supply Hamas’

Israel has warned its allies and the rest of the world from sending humanitarian relief directed to Palestinian civilians stuck in Gaza as the aid will only be taken by Hamas.

“All this is, is supply to Hamas,” Netanyahu’s former assistant foreign policy advisor Caroline Glick told Sky News Australia.

“Which is one of the reasons that the people of Israel find it both insulting and dangerous and really shocking that the US and Australia and other allies are advocating so obsessively on behalf of expanding the resupply of Hamas in the middle of this war.

“They control everything, the whole concept of humanitarian aid in an area controlled by a terrorist organisation is absurd.”

Ms Glick’s comments come after more than 400 foreign nationals and injured Palestinians, including over 20 Australians were allowed to leave the Gaza Strip on Thursday.
