US special envoy Witkoff wants to travel to Gaza Strip
The supply situation in the Gaza Strip is considered catastrophic. Helpers warn of a famine. US President Trump’s special envoy now wants to see the situation himself.
The US specialist Steve Witkoff and the American ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, will get an idea of the location in the Gaza Strip tomorrow. The spokeswoman for the White House, Karoline Leavitt, explained in Washington. The two want to inspect distribution centers for aid deliveries on Friday and draw up a plan for further aid deliveries. In addition, it is about “learning more about the dramatic location on site” from the people there.
Witkoff had already met the right -wing conservative prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel on Thursday. During their conversation, according to media reports, it is said to have been a catastrophic location in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli hostages in the violence of the Palestinian terrorist organization of Hamas and around Iran.
Local media had already reported that Witkoff could also visit the Gaza Strip. There he wanted to get a picture of the controversial distribution of relief goods by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) supported by Israel. US President Donald Trump had recently insisted more food for the needy Palestinians in the sealed-off Gaza Strip.
