Egypt Reaffirms Its Unwavering Humanitarian Support for Gaza

Badr Abdelatty, Egypt’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Migration, and Egyptians Abroad, affirmed that Egypt has spared no effort in providing humanitarian and medical aid to the Gaza Strip.

He emphasized that “Egypt’s hands are clean” in this matter, highlighting Cairo's continued support since the beginning of the blockade and the systematic starvation policy imposed by Israel on the Palestinian people.

In a televised remarks, Abdelatty stated that Egypt continues to deliver aid through all available channels, both by land and air, in an effort to alleviate the humanitarian catastrophe facing the enclave.

Moreover, he underscored that the primary legal and humanitarian responsibility lies with the occupying power, which must open all crossings, especially the five that connect it directly to Gaza, in addition to the Palestinian side of the Rafah crossing.

FM further stressed that Israel must lift all restrictions imposed on the entry of humanitarian and medical aid, which directly exacerbate the crisis, describing these practices as a “systematic starvation policy.”

Abdelataty added, “I reiterate that anyone who questions or downplays Egypt’s role,whether intentionally or not, is ultimately contributing to easing the pressure and responsibility on the real party behind the catastrophe: Israel, as the occupying power.”

He concluded by affirming Egypt’s hope to host the “Early Recovery and Reconstruction Conference” as soon as a ceasefire agreement is reached, reaffirming Egypt’s continued support for the Palestinian people.
