Egypt said on Monday that Israel was not cooperating with delivery of aid into Gaza and evacuations of foreign passport holders via the only entry it does not wholly control, leaving hundreds of tonnes of supplies stuck.
Israel is going to slow down cooperating as long as they can, so there’s as much death as possible, while still being able to say they allowed them to live.
Reading between the lies, it looks like Biden is trying to really hammer home the message that Hamas is different from Palestinian civilians and that the latter should be protected. Abbas issued a condemnation of Hamas after Biden spoke with him, even though initially Abbas excused the attack.
We’ll have to see how successful it is. Judging from who they’re asking to stay quiet on this, I think Biden and only the highest ranking officials are trying to back channel here.
Yeah, was listening to BBC this morning -Tim Franks interviewing Israeli intelligence about allowing fuel through to get water pumps going again. It was very clear the answer was no, but they refused to say so directly. The interviewee became hostile and kept going on about how hamas uses these people as human shields. … Is the west supposed to think dying of thirst the more humanitarian option? Is that what they’re going for? jfc
Someone said the pipes are too fucked by the bombing and TBH that makes sense. But assuming they’re ok, can you even get water pumps going again safely?
I’ve heard that pipes always leak and you need to keep constant pressure in the lines so the leak is out into the soil instead of losing pressure and letting the dirt and bacteria leak back into the water supply.
I suppose dirty water can be boiled and is better than water with heavy metals… Anybody with any actual experience wanna speak up about this?

Yeah, they will ultimately cooperate as the USA and Europe increasingly go “hey guys, please no genocide”, but as slow and as little as they can.
