Israel has today publicly reiterated its commitment to stopping the people of Gaza from dying from preventable causes like starvation, illness and gunfire.

Despite arresting another group of people trying to bring aid to the starving people of the region smaller way smaller than an Australian capital city, Israel says they are doing everything to assist Palestinian civilians.

The incredibly popular country in the middle of an internationally publicised genocide have confirmed that they no interest in trying to blockade the tiny area of Gaza.

“We are doing everything we can to help feed and medicate the people of Gaza,” said a spokesperson for the Israeli Defence Force today.

“The arrests today of the members of the Freedom Flotilla, were not of peaceful activists trying to feed the people of Gaza, but were arms dealers bringing weapons into the women and children who are harbouring Hamas fighters.”

The arrest of Greta Thunberg and a number of others aboard the aid ship Madleen – come after the killings of hundreds of people around aid centres run by the controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), (a US-led initiative backed by Israel in Israeli-controlled zones), and preceded by the killing of another 14 today.

The total death toll is now believed to be over 55,000, with many inside Gaza claiming that the GHF aid sites have become death traps for people in Gaza.

However, while people are dying of starvation, illness and gunfire around aid camps, Israel says allegations that they are preventing aid from being distributed to people who need it, are simply Hamas propaganda.

More to come.
