Egypt condemns Israel for halting Gaza aid, accuses it of using ‘starvation as a weapon’
Egypt, which has served as a key mediator between Israel and Hamas, condemns Israel’s closure of Gaza crossings to aid supplies and accuses Israel of using “starvation as a weapon.”
Earlier, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar rejected the claim Gazans could face starvation, saying this was “a lie during this whole war.”
“We saw that when our hostages were released, the terrorists and the crowd looked perfectly fine. The only ones that looked that they were starved were our hostages,” he said.
