The Israeli National Security Minister said he had met officials of the “higher republican party” in the Mar-A-Lago field of US President Donald Trump.
The far-right Israeli Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir said that the best American Republican legislators support the bombing of “food and aid deposits” in Gaza.
The declaration, made in an article on social networks on Wednesday, intervened after the Israeli Minister of National Security said that he had met “senior republican party officials to the Mar-A-Lago de Trump” in Florida in the United States.
“They have expressed their support for my very clear position on how to act in Gaza and that food and help deposits should be bombed in order to create military and political pressures to bring our hostages home safely,” Ben-Gvir published on Hebrew.
The American president was not at the event, according to his public schedule.
The Ben-Gvir position did not specify what Republicans were present. However, the Ben-Gvir office told Israeli media that the member of the Republican Congress Tom Emmer, considered the third highest member of the United States House of Representatives, was among the legislators present.
The Times of Israel and the Jewish News Syndicate was among the media that cited Ben-Gvir’s office in the presence of EMMER, which also seemed confirmed by video of the event.
The member of the Congress was one of the main voices of the American Congress supporting Israel in the middle of the war in Gaza, and regularly said that Hamas, not Israel, was to blame for the high rate of civilian deaths in the Palestinian enclave.
A spokesperson for Emmer did not respond to a request for comments from Tel Aviv Tribune concerning the visit of Mar-A-Lago and if the Congress member supported Ben-Gvir’s position on the attack on food and aid sites.
To date, the Ministry of Health in Gaza said that at least 51,300 Palestinians had been killed since the start of the war in the wake of the October 7 attack by Hamas in southern Israel, during which at least 1,139 people were killed.
Israeli attacks, continuous aid block
Ben-Gvir was one of the main voices of Israel calling for the climbing of the Israel Assault against Gaza.
Resident of an illegal Israeli colony in an occupied West Bank, he called for the resettlement of Gaza and brilliantly approved Trump’s plan to force the residents of the Palestinian enclave.
He initially resigned from the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in January, in opposition to a temporary ceasefire agreement.
Before joining the government in March, he called on Israel to cut electricity and water and bomb the assistant deposits in Gaza while a six -week break reached its end.
Israeli attacks continued after military operations resumed on March 18, with 1,928 Palestinians killed since then.
While Trump had promised to end the war when taking office, a lasting cease-fire agreement remained elusive.
Meanwhile, France, Germany and the United Kingdom condemned the Israeli blocking in the process of help, food and medicine entering Gaza on Wednesday.
They called “intolerable” actions.
