"The world is now sickened and absolutely disgusted with the level of bombing and starvation that is ongoing in Gaza."

Taoiseach Micheál Martin said that "the weaponisation of aid is a war crime" and that allowing only five aid trucks into Gaza "is a sick joke."

#Gaza: The U.S.-Israel plan to control the distribution of supplies under the guise of humanitarian assistance raises grave ethical, security and legal concerns.
