Cessation of IDF activities in Gaza to facilitate humanitarian activities


7 Jan 2009
(Communicated by COGAT - Coordination of Government Activities in the
Territories, Ministry of Defense)

Following the decision of the Israeli political echelon, as of today
(Wednesday, 7 January 2009) the IDF will refrain from fire throughout Gaza
City for a period of three hours, in order to enable a "humanitarian
respite" for the people within the area of operation. This activity is
scheduled to be implemented on a bi-daily basis. During this time, the
Palestinians will be able to acquire basic necessities, replenish stock and
seek aid from the various international organizations operating within the
Gaza Strip. Today, Wednesday, the IDF will halt all fire in Gaza City from
13:00-16:00 (1:00-4:00 pm).

The second component of the humanitarian effort will enable approximately 80
trucks carrying medicine, medical supplies and basic food commodities to
pass into Gaza via the Kerem Shalom crossing and approximately half a
million liters of heavy duty diesel are scheduled to pass through the Nahal
Oz terminal, as well as 60,000 liters of fuel to be transferred for the
first time by truck via the Kerem Shalom crossing.



This is not an act of humanity it is immoral.

Allowing goods into Gaza can only prolong the combat unless due to international pressure the Cowards, Scum and Traitors that lead Israel stop before Israel solves the problem of rockets from Gaza.

60,000 liters of fuel allowed into Gaza today, how many Molotov cocktails can this fuel make?

In war you seek to kill your enemy and destroy his infrastructure in the most massive way possible so that your soldiers can win victory and then return home. Allowing aid in has strengthened Hamas.
