A senior adviser to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mark Regev, said that "Israel" is not permitting the transportation of fuel to the Gaza Strip, under the pretext of Hamas "stealing" it for its benefit. 

Talking to CNN on Monday, Regev said: "The government decision is that fuel doesn't go in because it will be stolen by Hamas and it'll be used by them to power rockets that are fired into Israel to kill our people," adding that only a small amount was entered through the Rafah crossing but was allegedly "stolen".

Regev additionally emphasized that the Occupation would not allow fuel to enter Gaza, even if the hostages were freed.

US President Joe Biden said Monday that discussions about a Gaza ceasefire could only occur if the Palestinian Resistance released all captives captured during Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.

Humanitarian aid destined for Palestinians faces uncertainty, with growing concerns about the deteriorating conditions for the population trapped in the besieged Strip amid non-stop hysteric Israeli bombardment.

This comes despite the dire humanitarian situation that Palestinians in Gaza are subjected to due to the ongoing US-backed Israeli aggression on the completely besieged Strip, with minimal aid received through the Rafah crossing and more than 5,000 Gazans martyred as a result of the aggression so far.

A public outcry

This comes as the third batch of trucks carrying aid arrived in Gaza through the Rafah border from Egypt.

20 aid trucks crossed into Gaza on Saturday, another 17 on Sunday, and around a dozen crossed yesterday - bringing the number of aid trucks to at least 49.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Cairo reported last week that approximately 100 trucks carrying 1,000 tonnes of humanitarian aid are waiting to enter from Egypt into the Gaza Strip.

The main hospital in Gaza City, Al-Shifa Hospital, is set to exhaust its electricity supply in the next 24 hours, as reported by Guillemette Thomas, the medical coordinator for Palestine at Doctors Without Borders, on Friday.

As part of the 20-truck convoy that was transported through the Rafah border crossing, the United Nations Children's Fund announced that it had provided around 44,000 bottles of water to Gaza, a quantity enough for 22,000 people per day. 

"Israel" has cut off water, food, and energy supplies to the Strip, which has made life unbearable for more than 2 million Gazans and has left over 5,000 martyrs.
