The chief of the IDF Southern Command, Maj. Gen. Yaron Finkelman, and the head of COGAT, Maj. Gen. Ghassan Alian, met yesterday with representatives of humanitarian aid organizations operating in Gaza, the military announces.
The IDF says the meeting with members of UN bodies, the Red Cross, USAID, IMC, and the American humanitarian coordinator was part of “increasing coordination and cooperation” between the IDF and organizations operating in Gaza.
During the meeting at the Southern Command headquarters in Beersheba, Finkelman presented an overview of the situation in Gaza, and Alian showed the aid representatives the IDF’s humanitarian activities and steps to increase the rate of aid entering the Strip, the military says.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
