Iranian Foreign Ministry criticizes US and Israel over Gaza humanitarian crisis

Ismail Baghaei, spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, addressed the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the West Bank during a press conference. He stated that the prevention of humanitarian aid, medicine, and essential goods from entering Gaza is part of a campaign by the Israeli regime. Baghaei noted that while the Sharm el-Sheikh agreement intended for 600 trucks to enter Gaza daily, only approximately 120 to 122 trucks are currently arriving, which is insufficient for the two million displaced Palestinians facing winter conditions.

Baghaei also criticized the United States for its support of Israel, claiming that international bodies influenced by the US have failed to take effective action. Regarding US domestic politics, he suggested that the US administration must understand the message of its people, noting that public dissatisfaction stems from the consequences of supporting aggressive policies. He asserted that Iran's demands are not unreasonable and that the US must decide how to proceed.
