Dan Perry: ‘There is no starvation in Gaza’

Dan Perry, former chairman of the Foreign Press Association of Israel, discussed the humanitarian crisis in Gaza with Al Jazeera. He acknowledged the obstruction of aid during winter, leading to severe humanitarian issues. Perry highlighted Israel's argument that Hamas hijacks aid, complicating relief efforts. Despite accusations from aid organisations and the UN, Perry contended there is no widespread starvation in Gaza. He emphasised Israel's goals to retrieve hostages and remove Hamas, suggesting regional pressure on Hamas to end hostilities. In contrast, critics argue that the blockade and attacks violate international law and exacerbate the humanitarian crisis. Perry disputed the classification of the situation as apartheid and occupation, citing the complex nature of the issue.
