Israeli security forces delivered 300 liters of diesel fuel to Shifa Hospital in Gaza early Sunday morning and later received intelligence indicating that Hamas had intercepted the delivery, according to a Sunday night IDF statement.

    Why is fuel being blockaded in the first place?

    Israel is starving out the civilian population and then acts shocked when terrorists steal from civilians.

          With diesel, Hamas can power air circulation vents in their tunnels, as well as water pumps (some people in comments on Lemmy said that the low sea level there may affect the depth of the tunnels).

          Probably not their rockets but continuing their war effort in other ways that absolutely doesn’t benefit the citizens of Gaza and especially not the people who are in danger because Hamas is actively doing everything they can to maximize collateral damage, suffering and casualties on all sides of this conflict.

          Top that off with how a lot of their funding comes from Iran and their recruiting goes all over the middle east, the psycopaths in Hamas right now are not likelu Palestinian or have any empathy for the people they use as an excuse to attack innocent civilians.
