Hamas-UN talks on Gaza aid ” failed ‘| Conflicts between Israel and Palestine Issues

Hamas and United Nations talks on Gaza have failed, the council’s leader said.

“This was a bad meeting and it was not good,” Yahya Sinwar said on Monday.

“Meeting with UN envoys was enough and they listened to us. But unfortunately, there is no sign of trying to address the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.”

Sinwar made the remarks at a press conference following a meeting in Gaza City with UN envoys, including the UN special envoy for the Middle East Peace Process, Tor Wennesland.

Sinwar also accused Israel of “disrupting Palestinian forces, including Hamas” in a bid to address the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

The latest developments came less than a month after Israel and Hamas agreed to end a 11-day Israeli ceasefire on the Gaza Strip on May 21.

An Israeli offensive killed at least 257 Palestinians, including 66 children. Thirteen people were killed in Israel, including two children.

The Israeli offensive also destroyed 1,148 homes and businesses in Gaza and destroyed 15,000 others, leaving 100,000 civilians displaced in UN-run schools and other residential areas.

Risks of growth

Israeli journalists say Sinwar has threatened to escalate tensions with Israel if they do not allow Qatar to transfer $ 30m to the Gaza Strip to help pay.

Qatar, in recent years, has allocated millions of dollars to Hamas, which controls Gaza, to provide electricity to the Strip, pay civil servants, and provide assistance to thousands of poor families.

Earlier this month, Qatar’s Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani said at a conference in St Petersburg that the Gulf oil-rich country had invested about $ 1.4bn in Gaza since 2012.

Lost jobs

Meanwhile, Pepsi’s Gaza company has been forced to suspend operations – leaving hundreds without work – this week due to a Israeli ban on an 11-day Israeli strike in Gaza, the company said.

With the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza taking place, Israel on Monday agreed to resume deployment outside the wall.

But it has set up ways to strengthen the environment, including carbon dioxide and sorghum, which the bottled factory needs to produce soft drinks, says Hamam al-Yazeji of Pepsi Gaza.

“Yesterday, we ran out of supplies, and unfortunately we had to close the factory, sending 250 workers home,” Yazeji said.

Before the war last month, he said, Pepsi Gaza is often allowed to import the necessary weapons.

Suspensions could occur in some Gaza factories if Israeli sanctions are upheld, experts say.

Manufacturing is about 10% of the economy controlled by Gaza, according to a UN study.

Asked for comment, COGAT, a branch of the Israeli Ministry of Defense, said: “For security reasons, the import of equipment from the State of Israel to the Gaza Strip is not possible.

COGAT says Israel allows imports into Gaza, including oil, food, medicine and medical equipment.

Israel and neighboring Egypt are scrutinizing the Gaza Strip and saying the sanctions are necessary to prevent weapons from reaching Hamas and prevent them from being manufactured locally.

Egypt and the UN clashed last week after Israeli warplanes in Gaza protested this.
