Board of Peace calls Israel's Gaza flood aid 'insufficient'
The Board of Peace, established by US President Donald Trump, has issued rare criticism of Israel, calling its humanitarian response to flooding in Gaza "insufficient" and urging immediate entry of all necessary supplies. The US-backed body acknowledged steps Israel is considering but said the response remains inadequate after rain flooded tens of thousands of tents. It also blamed Hamas for civilian suffering, citing its failure to disarm and transfer power. Israel says it has brought in over 91,000 tents and 8,200 trucks with winter supplies, while the UN reports 1.4 million people live in tents. More than 150,000 tents await entry, with aid efforts constrained by Israeli restrictions and funding shortfalls.
