On Tuesday, the US secretary of state met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer and senior military officials in a series of meetings in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.<\/p>\n<p>The meetings are part of a regional tour that Washington sees as a chance to revive diplomacy after Israel\u2019s killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar in Gaza last week. The account of Blinken\u2019s face-to-face message to the Israelis comes despite mounting criticism that the US has failed to stem the rate at which civilians have been killed in Gaza because it has been unwilling to use its supplying of weapons to Israel as leverage.Washington has consistently rejected the criticism.<\/p>\n<p>The official said Blinken also pressed the Israeli leadership over reports that its military has been implementing a so-called \u201cgenerals\u2019 plan\u201d in northern Gaza &#8211; a tactic described as using mass forced displacement of civilians and a surrender-or-starve tactic against all who remain. Israeli attack on northern Gaza hints at retired general&#8217;s &#8216;surrender or starve&#8217; plan for war<br \/>\nThe official said the Israelis told them the tactic was \u201cabsolutely not\u201d their policy, to which the Americans responded that their Israeli counterparts then needed to make this clearer publicly. Israel has said its offensive in northern Gaza is to rout a Hamas resurgence.<\/p>\n<p>Blinken\u2019s apparent warning on humanitarian aid followed his letter last week, co-signed by US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin, which gave the Israeli government 30 days to surge aid into the northern Gaza Strip or risk having some military assistance cut off. \u201cThere was extended conversation about this,\u201d the senior State Department official said. They added: \u201cThe steps that have [been] taken thus far have not been sufficient and we made that clear today, that we do need to see more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have seen some initial progress. We heard more from Minister Gallant in detail about\u2026 steps that he is overseeing to be responsive to it, but\u2026 both with the prime minister, Minister Dermer and with Minister Gallant, this was a central part of the discussion,\u201d said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. Aid groups have warned that civilians in northern Gaza risk starvation amid Israel\u2019s military siege.<\/p>\n<p>Israel says its offensive there is focused on Hamas fighters, while the US has warned it not to try to forcibly displace residents to the south of Gaza, where 1.7 million civilians are crammed into a dangerously overcrowded area at \u201clethal risk\u201d of disease. Pressed on whether Blinken warned the Israelis verbally about repercussions if Israel didn\u2019t heed its demands, the official said Blinken \u201cmade clear it has implications under our law and policy, [and] what those actions need to be\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cy898ld3yp8o\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cy898ld3yp8o\">BBC<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/us-top-diplomat-issues-warning-to-israel-over-gaza-aid\/\">US top diplomat issues warning to Israel over Gaza aid<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[13722,1684,574,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-134829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-gaza-aid","tag-israel","tag-us","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134829"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134829\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
