Israeli minister openly admits to using starvation against Gaza

Far-right Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has openly admitted that Tel Aviv is deliberately starving Palestinians, declaring on Monday: “Not even a single grain of wheat will enter the Gaza Strip.”

His comments came in response to a report by Yedioth Ahronoth, which revealed that the Israeli military was preparing to allow aid into Gaza—even without a prisoner exchange deal.
