Episode 9. Crisis in Gaza: Unfolding humanitarian and political strands (10 Feb 2024)
In this episode, we look into the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza as it continues into 2024. Israeli forces have fired at Palestinians collecting humanitarian aid, amidst rising tensions and escalating violence. We discuss the troubling events at the Kuwaiti roundabout in Gaza City, where desperate families gather daily for food. Further allegations have emerged about Israeli forces targeting trucks from the Palestinian relief agency, obstructing aid delivery to northern Gaza. The situation is exacerbated by the suspension of funding from the United States and Australia to the UN Relief and Works Agency, following unverified claims of misconduct. We analyse the statements from U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and the controversial stance of the Australian government, alongside broader international reactions to Israel's actions. We also explore examines the political dimensions, focusing on the role of the Israeli parliament and the Palestinian government, and the critical perspectives from within the Australian Greens and the dissatisfaction among some members of the Labor government, voiced by Federal member for Fremantle, Josh Wilson, who highlights the dire situation in Gaza compared to global conflict zones.
