And the help continues....

While much of the world flounders and the Palestinians continue to focus on killing each other, Israel has, for some reason, appeared to take on the brunt of worrying about any approaching "humanitarian disaster." Recent headlines even suggest Israel is considering parachuting food and medicines into Gaza to alleviate the problem.

We have heard nothing suggesting that the UN is ready to intervene or that Egypt is similarly wondering how it can help - but Israel apparently is focusing much of its efforts and more aid was reported delivered to the Palestinians in Gaza on Friday, June 22.

According to the army spokesperson's office:

Despite the volatile security situation in the Gaza Strip, the IDF is continuing its efforts to help provide a response to humanitarian needs in the Gaza Strip. Throughout the day the following humanitarian aid was transferred into Gaza with the coordination of the Gaza District Coordination and Liaison Office:Despite the volatile security situation in the Gaza Strip, the IDF is continuing its efforts to help provide a response to humanitarian needs in the Gaza Strip.
