Israel in Ireland

UNRWA’s infiltration by terrorist operatives means it is no longer a legitimate agency.  Some of its employees participated in the October 7 massacres & hundreds with links to terror organizations remain employed there. Israel has presented extensive evidence about this & has repeatedly called for a full investigation, but the UN has chosen to ignore this issue. Israel, nor any other country should allow such a situation to continue. Israel remains committed to humanitarian efforts & facilitates access for 4,200 aid trucks per week – mainly food, medical supplies & equipment for shelter, & this will continue with appropriate organizations.

. @UNHumanRights The Israeli hostages are asking: "What have you done for us today?"

RT @cogatonline: The food is there. The aid is there. WATCH: Food and aid scenes from recent days👇

Beware of fake news. A joint investigation by @SZ and @BILD reveals how Hamas uses “Pallywood”, staged or selectively framed media, to manipulate global opinion. At the center is Anas Zayed Fteiha, a Palestinian photographer for Anadolu and an open Israel- and Jew-hater, whose images are designed to evoke pity and fuel outrage. Despite his bias, his photos are published by major outlets like CNN, BBC, and Reuters. With Hamas controlling nearly all media in Gaza, these photographers aren’t reporting, they’re producing propaganda. This investigation underscores how Pallywood has gone mainstream with staged images and ideological bias shaping international coverage, while the suffering of Israeli hostages and Hamas atrocities are pushed out of frame.

I asked the UN Security Council what Secretary-General Guterres tweeted after the horrible images of Evyatar and Rom were released. The answer: Not a word. Deafening silence. I also called out the Russian and Palestinian representatives. Watch my speech at a special meeting on the issue of the hostages >>

Yesterday, Israeli Foreign Minister @gidonsaar spoke before the UN Security Council and asked the world a simple question: “Is this not news worthy?” Evyatar David and Rom Braslavski are being held hostage by Palestinian Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad for 670 days. Starved. Injured. Barely recognizable. And still, the world looks away. We won’t let you.

. @nytimes @bbc @cnn @Daily_Express - This is what your front page should've looked like!

Nearly 2 billion kg of aid. 100,000 trucks. Israel has been working around the clock to get food, medicine, and essentials into Gaza. No restrictions. This is one of the largest humanitarian efforts in the world. The facts speak louder than the lies.

A lie went viral. A child’s illness was twisted into propaganda. This isn’t journalism. It’s a blood libel.

A real child. A fake story. 📸 11-month-old Sila Barbakh isn’t starving — he suffers from a pre-existing chronic gastrointestinal illness, unrelated to the war. But global media used his photo to push a false narrative of famine in Gaza. This isn’t journalism. It’s propaganda.

They quietly added an editor’s note, but the lie already went global.

🚨Watch: Armed Hamas terrorists violently looting humanitarian aid, preventing it from reaching the civilian population of Gaza. Contrary to Hamas’ false claims that the individuals in the video are security personnel, they are in fact Hamas terrorists who arrived to seize the aid from Gaza’s residents. Even when aid is delivered into Gaza - Hamas loots it for its own use, blatantly disregarding the needs of the population.

🚛Over 120 trucks were collected and distributed yesterday by the UN and international organizations. 🚛An additional 180 trucks entered Gaza and are now awaiting collection and distribution, along with hundreds of others still queued for UN pickup. More consistent collection and distribution by UN agencies and international organizations = more aid reaching those who need it most in Gaza.

As part of our ongoing effort to increase the scale of humanitarian aid entering the Gaza Strip and In accordance with directives from the political echelon, a local tactical pause in military activity will take place for humanitarian purposes from 10:00 to 20:00, starting today (Sunday). The pause will begin in the areas where the IDF is not operating: Al-Mawasi, Deir al-Balah, and Gaza City, every day until further notice. This decision was coordinated with the @UN and international organizations following discussions regarding the matter. Designated secure routes will also be in place permanently from 06:00 to 23:00 to enable the safe passage of UN and humanitarian aid organization convoys delivering and distributing food and medicine to the population across the Gaza Strip. The IDF will continue to support humanitarian efforts alongside ongoing maneuvering and offensive operations against terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip, in order to protect Israeli civilians. The IDF is prepared to expand the scale of this activity as required.

Tomorrow morning Israel will apply a "humanitarian pause" in civilian centers and in humanitarian corridors to enable the distribution of aid supply. Israel has continued to facilitate the entry of aid trucks into the Gaza strip. Unfortunately, the UN has failed so far to collect and distribute the large amount of aid trucks that are stored in designated areas inside of the Gaza strip. Now it is expected of the UN to collect and distribute the large quantities of aid, without any further delay or excuses. Israel rejects the false accusations of "starvation" propaganda initiated by Hamas which manipulates pictures of children suffering from terminal diseases. It is shameful.

Exclusive: This is not the face of famine. It is the face of a medically vulnerable child whose tragic situation was hijacked and weaponised. Exposing the truth behind the viral Gaza 'famine' image of Mohammed Al-Matouq. 1/13 🧵⬇️⬇️⬇️

Contrary to popular narratives, there is NO LIMIT on the number of humanitarian aid trucks that can enter Gaza. The real bottleneck lies with the UN and international organizations, whose collection of aid from the crossings dropped sharply over the past month. Only after significant pressure, did the UN and international organizations resume collection: within just two days, over 270 trucks were collected from the Gazan side of Kerem Shalom and Zikim crossings by the UN and international organizations. When there is @UN will, there is a way.

The French President’s declaration will not advance peace in the Middle East. It will not help defeat the threat of terror. And most importantly – it will certainly not help bring them home any sooner.🎗️

Aid isn’t being blocked. It’s being ignored by the @UN Right now, 950 aid trucks are waiting inside Gaza, fully loaded and ready for distribution. Israel facilitated their entry. So why are they still sitting there? The UN needs to stop pointing fingers and start doing its job.

We have decided to bring our team home from Doha for consultations after the latest response from Hamas, which clearly shows a lack of desire to reach a ceasefire in Gaza. While the mediators have made a great effort, Hamas does not appear to be coordinated or acting in good faith. We will now consider alternative options to bring the hostages home and try to create a more stable environment for the people of Gaza. It is a shame that Hamas has acted in this selfish way. We are resolute in seeking an end to this conflict and a permanent peace in Gaza.
