International newspapers focused on Israel's failure to fulfill the requests made by the United States a month ago regarding facilitating the entry of aid to the northern Gaza Strip, and said that the American administration, which can verify this, will not impose any restrictions on Tel Aviv.
The Washington Post published the results of an analysis based on more than 12 interviews with relief workers, indicating that Israel has largely failed to comply with American demands, which has pushed parts of northern Gaza to the brink of famine.
The analysis said that the Israeli failure is reflected in the decline in humanitarian aid, the continued isolation of the northern Gaza Strip, and the prevention of the resumption of commercial truck traffic.
In the same context, The Time magazine quoted a former US State Department official as saying that the Joe Biden administration "will have no difficulty in confirming that Israel prevented aid from reaching the Palestinians in Gaza because it is difficult to deny this fact."
However, the official said that the US administration "may use US national security interests as an excuse to back down from any restrictions it was considering imposing on military support for Israel."
As for Newsweek magazine, it published a report documenting the martyrdom of more than 10 Palestinians following two raids inside what Israel considers a humanitarian zone in Gaza.
The report indicated that the two raids were carried out just hours after Tel Aviv spoke of its intention to expand the humanitarian zone and at a time when the American deadline had passed, which aid organizations say proved the Israelis had failed to fulfill their commitment to the demands of the Biden administration. In Israel, Haaretz newspaper said that rescuing the hostages (prisoners) trapped in Gaza "will only be possible by threatening Benjamin Netanyahu's rule." The newspaper recalled the statements of the dismissed Defense Minister Yoav Galant, in which he confirmed that the goals of the war on Gaza had been achieved.
The newspaper said, "The role now falls on the Israeli public, which is required to pressure Netanyahu's government by all means in order to reach an agreement that frees the hostages, instead of falling into the trap of being preoccupied with endless political and security events."
In the British newspaper The Guardian, an opinion article stated that Israel's real goal in northern Gaza "is to evacuate the area of Palestinians and then seize it forever."
The article reinforced its argument with statements by Israeli officials that it said tend to be part of an undeclared official policy to empty northern Gaza of its population through starvation, oppression, intimidation and killing, noting that Donald Trump's return to power "may be an encouraging factor."
