GAZA, (PIC)
Right-wing Israeli extremists, along with relatives of prisoners held in Gaza, closed the roads leading to the Nitzana crossing on Friday, preventing the passage of humanitarian aid to the besieged Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
The Hebrew website Walla reported that Israeli protesters closed the Nitzana crossing to prevent trucks carrying humanitarian aid from entering the Gaza Strip.
The website stated that the protesters prevented supply trucks from entering the Gaza Strip, declaring that “no aid will pass until the last captive is returned,” referring to Israeli prisoners in Gaza.
Israeli extremists and relatives of prisoners held by the resistance are staging protests on the roads leading to the Kerem Shalom and Nitzana crossings to prevent the passage of humanitarian aid trucks to Gaza.
The World Food Program warned on Thursday that the risk of famine in the Gaza Strip is increasing daily, adding that the arrival of aid to the city of Gaza is not enough to prevent famine.
