Israeli minister vows to block food, water and fuel to Gaza

Far-right Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has doubled down on his genocidal stance against Gaza, insisting that no humanitarian supplies should be allowed into the besieged enclave.

Channel 14 quoted the far-right minister as saying, “We cannot bring aid to our enemy (in the Gaza Strip), not water, electricity, fuel, or food.”

Smotrich’s comments underline Israel’s ongoing policy of collective punishment, as Gaza’s 2.3 million residents face a worsening humanitarian catastrophe marked by famine, disease, and relentless bombardment.
