Ben Gvir: The entry of fuel must be prevented and aid to Gaza must be reduced

Yesterday, Friday, Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir called for preventing the entry of fuel and reducing humanitarian aid entering the Gaza Strip.


The leader of the far-right Jewish Power party said in a post on the X platform: “Our position in the Jewish Power Party is that we want our abductees (the Israeli prisoners in Gaza) to return to their homeland as soon as possible.”


He added: "In our opinion, Israel must prevent fuel from Gaza and reduce the humanitarian aid that enters."


He added: "Israel should only declare humanity in exchange for humanity, but we will not agree to a deal that would jeopardize the future of the State of Israel."


Jewish Power's leading Heritage Minister, Amichai Eliyahu, echoed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's statements, saying: "We have to stop providing assistance to them (the Palestinians in Gaza). We want them to crawl to us and beg for a deal."


Ben Gvir had threatened to dissolve the Israeli government if it accepted a prisoner exchange deal and a ceasefire, according to the proposal presented by US President Joe Biden last Friday.
