GAZA: Hamas praised Yemen’s Houthi rebels on Wednesday after they announced they would resume attacks on Israeli shipping, calling it a demonstration of “true commitment” to the Palestinian cause.
“It is a true commitment of support for our Palestinian people and their resistance, and it exerts real pressure to break the unjust siege on Gaza,” Hamas said in a statement, after the Houthis announced they would resume attacks following the expiry of their deadline for Israel to stop blocking aid deliveries into Gaza.
Aid group warns of children’s deaths if Israel’s aid blockade remains in place
Islamic Relief has called Israel’s decision to cut electricity of people in Gaza saying that “yet another cruel act of collective punishment”.
“It is inevitable that children and some of the most vulnerable people in Gaza will die, unless international governments exert serious pressure on Israel to allow supplies in. Words of concern are not enough; immediate action is necessary to stop people from starving,” the group said as quoted by Al Jazeera.
