Netanyahu and Trump: Support for Israel despite the Gaza crisis!

In a current political climate, which is characterized by herds of conflict in the Middle East, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected rumors about a dispute with former US President Donald Trump. As n-tv.de , Netanyahu referred to a phone call ten days ago in which he confirmed his unrestricted support for Israel.

While Donald Trump takes his first trip abroad to the Middle East without a visit to Israel, he has already visited Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Trump is under pressure, especially from the US government, which demands that the humanitarian crisis are mitigated in the Gaza Strip. The blockade, which was lifted on Monday, had been in force for more than eleven weeks and was justified by the assembly of relief goods by Hamas.

Humanitarian location in the Gaza Strip

The United Nations have reported that no relief supplies have so far left the Kerem Schalom loading area, which has severely tightened the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip. UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said that despite the cancellation of the blockade on Monday, there was only gradual deliveries. On Monday, five trucks drove over the border on Tuesday 93 and at least 15 trucks on Wednesday. In order to prevent famine, the UN call for at least 500 truck charges to help per day.

The situation in the Gaza Strip has led to sharp criticism both in Germany and abroad. This also affects the fact that Pope Leo asked the Israeli government to allow help in the war -destroyed area. There are also protests against the blockade and the offensive against Hamas in Israel, while a group of demonstrators in Kerem Schalom tries to prevent the truck through until the Hamas releases all hostages.

military operations and civil losses

Netanyahu has announced that Israel wants to take control of all areas of the Gaza Strip, while the military operations are continued unabated. According to his offensive, Israel has reportedly carried out numerous attacks on the Hamas, which took place in response to the terrorist attack on October 7, 2023, in which around 1200 people were killed and more than 250 kidnapped. Currently there are 57 hostages in the violence of Hamas, 23 of which are reported as alive.

Hamas states that more than 53,000 people were killed during the conflict without making a difference between fighters and civilians. So far, these figures have not been checked independently. The civil infrastructure in the Gaza Strip suffers from the ongoing fights, and the Hamas health authority reports that all clinics in the north of the Gaza Strip are out of operation.

the realities on site offset themselves with the political dynamics at the international level. The linking of military actions and humanitarian action remains a central topic in the current conflict.

The US government, as the most important arms supplier of Israel, puts pressure on the Israeli government to avoid a humanitarian crisis, while Netanyahu continues to control the virtually unsecured parts of the Gaza Strip.

The coming days could be crucial for the fate of the population in the Gaza Strip. The international focus remains on the humanitarian situation, while the military conflicts are going on.
