ISRAELI protesters blocked aid trucks which were destined for Gaza on Monday as food packages were thrown onto the road.
The lorries, which were set upon at the Tarqumiya checkpoint west of Hebron, came from Jordan and were headed to the Gaza Strip, where people are in desperate need of humanitarian aid.Videos circulated on social media showed protesters throwing supplies from the trucks onto the ground, with the contents of opened cartons lying spilled across the road.
Hana Giat, 33, said “no food should go into Gaza” until Israeli hostages are returned “healthy and alive”. The incident came on the same day a UN staff member was killed and another injured as they travelled to a hospital in Gaza.
