Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir stated that stopping humanitarian aid deliveries to the Gaza Strip would accelerate Israel’s path to victory, according to Al-Qahera News on Wednesday.
Ben Gvir, known for his hardline stance, has repeatedly voiced opposition to the delivery of aid to Gaza amid ongoing military operations in the enclave.
His latest remarks come as international and regional actors continue to urge the Israeli government to allow the steady flow of humanitarian assistance to prevent further deterioration of the humanitarian crisis.
The minister’s statement is expected to stir further debate both within Israel and internationally, especially among human rights organizations and aid agencies warning of catastrophic consequences if relief efforts are hindered.
Israel has been engaged in intensified operations in Gaza since October 2023, with mounting civilian casualties and growing pressure from the international community for a ceasefire and increased humanitarian access.
