Israel Accuses French President of "Crusade Against the Jewish State"

(Ynet News) Itamar Eichner - Israel's Foreign Ministry on Friday sharply rejected French President Emmanuel Macron's assertion that Israel is enforcing a humanitarian blockade on Gaza, calling it "a blatant lie." The ministry said that Israel is currently facilitating aid through two major efforts aimed at delivering humanitarian relief while bypassing Hamas. "In the first effort, nearly 900 aid trucks have already entered Gaza from Israel this week. Hundreds of these trucks are still waiting for the UN to collect and distribute them in Gaza." The second effort involves the new Gaza Humanitarian Foundation - backed by the U.S. - which has already distributed two million meals and tens of thousands of aid packages since it began operating last week. "This direct aid to the population in Gaza - bypassing Hamas - is already changing the situation on the ground and has the potential to seriously harm the terrorists and shorten the war." Rather than applying pressure on "jihadist terrorists," the ministry accused Macron of attempting to reward them by advancing Palestinian statehood. "It is against Israel - under attack on multiple fronts in an attempt to destroy it - that Macron seeks to impose sanctions."
