Hamas has called for immediate international, Arab, and Islamic action to end the Israeli siege on Gaza and allow humanitarian aid to enter.

In a statement on Monday evening, Hamas condemned the closure of Gaza’s crossings by Israel, calling it a collective punishment against civilians and a violation of international humanitarian law.

The movement stressed that preventing the entry of essential goods like food and medicine constitutes a war crime and aims to suffocate over two million Palestinians.

Hamas also criticized Netanyahu’s public decision to block aid, accusing him of ignoring international law and benefiting from U.S. political support.
