Gaza’s Humanitarian Crisis None Of Our Business – Ex-Israeli PM

Published

A former Prime Minister of Israel, Naftali Bennett, has said the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is none of their business.

Israel controls the air space over Gaza and its shoreline and strictly controls the movement of people and goods.

“The world can come and help the Gazans, that’s none of our business,” he said during a Sunday programme, when asked if Israel will allow more aid into Gaza.

Bennett said humanitarian action must be reciprocal, citing hostages being held by Hamas.

“We are not responsible for Gaza like you are not responsible for France,” he responded.

“If others want to take care of the Gazans, that’s theirs to do.”

Pressed further that Israel does control Gaza’s borders, Bennett said Israel’s notice to Gazans to move to the south was evidence of humanitarian action.
