Israeli warplanes struck targets across Gaza after another small aid shipment was allowed into the enclave, which faces a potential ground invasion.
Israeli warplanes struck targets across Gaza on Monday, including in areas where Palestinian civilians have been told to seek refuge, after another small aid shipment was allowed into the besieged Hamas-ruled territory. Israel has still not allowed any fuel to enter Gaza, where there has been a power blackout for nearly two weeks. Hospitals say they are scrounging for generator fuel in order to keep operating life-saving medical equipment and incubators for premature babies.
the Israeli defense body responsible for Palestinian civilian affairs, said the aid was allowed in at the request of the United States and included water, food and medical supplies. It said Israel inspected everything before it entered Gaza. In a Sunday phone call, Netanyahu and President Biden “affirmed that there will now be continued flow of this critical assistance into Gaza,” the White House said in a statement.
