We\u2019re nearly entering the fourth month of that ongoing blockade, along with the return to warfare by the Israeli military on the people of Gaza.So without the Israeli government allowing humanitarian organisations to get into Gaza, you now have a situation that we\u2019ve seen in the videos where you\u2019ve got people basically rushing through a very small checkpoint trying to get their hands on food and medicines and other supplies that they so desperately need, and doing so because they are watching their relatives get sick and die every single day.Click here to share on social media<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Faje.io%2Fd9wxs3%3Fupdate%3D3736475\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Bruce%E2%80%99s%20UN%20criticism%20rings%20hollow%20amid%20Israel%E2%80%99s%20blockade%20on%20Gaza&amp;source=sharethiscom&amp;related=sharethis&amp;via=AJEnglish&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Faje.io%2Fd9wxs3%3Fupdate%3D3736475\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/aje.io\/d9wxs3?update=3736475\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>6h ago\u00a0(19:30 GMT)US downplays Gaza aid chaos and blames Hamas for issuesUS State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce has downplayed the chaos earlier today at an Israeli-US food distribution initiative, blaming Hamas for the situation in Gaza.\u201cAll of this could have stopped if [Hamas] had released the hostages and laid down its weapons, but they\u2019ve refused to do so. They\u2019ve also rejected ceasefires,\u201d she said at a news conference.\u201cHamas has been opposed to this [aid] dynamic, they have attempted to stop the aid movement through Gaza to these distribution centres, but they have failed \u2026 In that kind of environment, it\u2019s not surprising that there might be a few issues involved. But the good news is that those seeking to get aid to the people of Gaza, which is not Hamas, have succeeded.\u201dJournalists at the news conference challenged these claims, saying that there was no evidence that Hamas had attempted to obstruct the aid.Bruce responded by saying the aid delivery will improve over time and needs to expand, and that while she says she doesn\u2019t speak for the initiative, it\u2019s \u201cclear that the goal was to reach as many people as possible\u201d.\u201cThe real story is that aid and food is moving into Gaza in a massive scale, we\u2019re looking at 8,000 boxes [today],\u201d she said.\u201cWas this going to be like going to the mall or a drive-through?

reflects the total collapse of the so-called humanitarian track that the occupation claims to uphold\u201d.The office said the scenes were evidence of Israel\u2019s failure to manage the humanitarian

army used live bullets and tear gas as they stormed the city of Nablus, killing at least one person and wounding more than 30.The Israeli police and military have not put out any official statement about the raids, but one military official speaking anonymously to Israeli media said officials will release information about their findings at some point later today.\u201cBut this official said earlier that Israel \u2018believes\u2019 \u2013 not that it has any evidence or proof \u2013 but \u2018believes\u2019 that these cash exchange places are funneling money to what they call terror

Israel and the West Bank.\u201cThe people who own these shops say they were not given any sort of proof by the Israeli military,\u201d she added.Salhut noted this was the fourth time that such raids have taken place since the start of the war on Gaza.\u201cThe first time was in December of 2023, when five different cash exchange places were raided by the Israeli military and they seized nearly $3m,\u201d she said. \u201cIt happened again in August 2024 and again in September of that same year.\u201dClick here to share on social media<a

attacks on Gaza. Trevor Ball, an American expert and researcher in munitions, confirmed Sanad\u2019s results.Israel imports these bombs from the US company Boeing, and multiple investigations have documented their use in targeting displacement camps in central and southern Gaza.Once launched from an aircraft, the bomb deploys its wings and uses a GPS guidance system to precisely correct its trajectory towards its target.

ceasefire agreement still lofty \u2018optimism\u2019There is not enough evidence suggesting a breakthrough in ceasefire talks \u201cdespite some occasional optimism being aired from all sides\u201d,

power in Gaza \u2026 whereas Israel refuses to end the war without Hamas being gone,\u201d Perry told Al Jazeera, speaking from Tel Aviv.\u201cThere\u2019s probably still a majority of people in Israeli society willing to end the war right now in exchange for all the hostages,\u201d he added.Perry said a \u201cradical pressure\u201d was needed on all sides to reach a permanent ceasefire, saying Hamas would need to disarm and relinquish power completely and Israel would need to accept that \u201cit will not occupy Gaza and that it will withdraw in favour of the reformed version of the Palestinian Authority\u201d.\u201cNow that is something that the Israeli opposition and the Israeli majority undoubtedly would support,\u201d he said.Click here to share on social media<a

earlier today in separate incidents.The Houthi armed group confirmed those attacks, saying they came in response to the storming of Jerusalem\u2019s Al-Aqsa Mosque compound yesterday by Israeli settlers.The group\u2019s statement, published on Telegram, said one of the missiles targeted Tel Aviv\u2019s Ben Gurion airport and the second one was directed towards \u201ca vital Zionist enemy target\u201d in eastern Israel.\u201cThe operation successfully achieved its goal, thanks to God, and caused millions of usurping Zionists to rush to shelters, halting air traffic at the airport,\u201d it claimed, contrary to the Israeli military statement, which did not report any impact.\u201cThe genocide against our brothers in the Gaza Strip, along with the siege and starvation, is a crime unprecedented in human history. This necessitates that all free people from our nation and the world take action to uphold justice, defend humanity, and fulfil their duty towards the oppressed Palestinian people,\u201d the Houthi statement concluded.Click here to share on social media<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Faje.io%2Fd9wxs3%3Fupdate%3D3735648\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer
