Israel Blocks Aid Truck Bound for Gaza Because It Contained Scissors in Medical Kits

Israel continues to restrict aid coming into Gaza, which is on the brink of famine. The U.N. is reporting one truck was recently denied access to Gaza because it contained scissors inside medical kits. UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini criticized the decision, saying, “Medical scissors are now added to a long list of banned items the Israeli Authorities classify as 'for dual use.'” He went on to write, “The list includes basic and lifesaving items: from anesthetics, solar lights, oxygen cylinders and ventilators, water cleaning tablets, cancer medicines and maternity kits.”
