Aid trucks were on their way to Gaza – right-wing activists arrived to block them

Right-wing activists from the 'Tzav 9' movement blocked aid trucks heading to Gaza at the Kerem Shalom crossing. Police removed them from the scene.

Right-wing activists from the 'Tzav 9' movement, together with residents of the Gaza envelope and Channel 14 reporter Milane Amar, blocked aid trucks heading to the Gaza Strip this morning (Thursday). The activists sat on the road at the Kerem Shalom crossing and physically prevented the trucks from passing. Police who arrived at the scene worked to remove them. The Tzav 9 movement stated that 'all the trucks give Hamas legitimacy to continue enriching and strengthening itself' and that they demand the demilitarization of the Strip and the complete dismantling of Hamas. The report presents the blockade as a legitimate action, using the phrasing 'enriching Hamas' as a fact.
