Israel hasn’t breached its law against blocking aid in Gaza, US says | BBC News
The militant group Palestinian Islamic Jihad have released a hostage video of Alexander Trufanov, also known as Sasha. He is a 28-year-old man who is one of a hundred or so people still thought to be held by Hamas in the Gaza Strip. This comes as the US says Israel has not breached American laws on blocking aid supplies, after a 30-day deadline it gave Israel to boost humanitarian aid access in Gaza or risk having some military assistance cut off lapsed. Officials said on Tuesday that Israel has taken a number of steps to address its demands to surge supplies into Gaza, but added that more progress must be made. Despite the US claims, the UN has warned that the amount of aid getting into Gaza is at its lowest level in a year.
