Hamas: Banning food and medicine is imposing a catastrophic reality on two million Palestinians

Live: Hamas movement confirmed, on Monday, that the continued closure of the Gaza Strip crossings by the occupation to aid is a collective punishment against innocent civilians and a flagrant violation of international law.

Hamas indicated in statements that preventing food and medicine is imposing a catastrophic reality on two million Palestinians and a blatant challenge to human values and international law, according to Al-Qahirah News Channel.

She pointed out that Netanyahu's announcement to prevent the entry of aid reflects his disregard for international laws and his indifference to the consequences of his crimes.

Hamas added: "Netanyahu benefits from political cover and unlimited American support."

Earlier today, Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said that his government had decided not to allow aid into Gaza.

Bezalel Smotrich said in statements that the next stage is to cut off electricity and water to Gaza and return to fighting to advance US President Donald Trump's plan.

The minister of the occupying state hinted that "stopping the entry of aid into Gaza is a step in the right direction."
