Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a joint statement overnight Wednesday ordering the Israel Defense Forces to present, within 48 hours, a plan to prevent Hamas from seizing humanitarian aid entering the northern Gaza Strip.

The directive follows intelligence reports indicating that Hamas is once again commandeering aid shipments and diverting them from Gaza’s civilian population.

The statement comes on the heels of a video posted to social media by former Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett, which appears to show armed Hamas terrorists riding atop food trucks after taking control of them.

“This video was filmed today,” Bennett wrote on X. “Soldiers on the ground explained to me that these are the current instructions—to bring in trucks without control. This is how they continue to feed Hamas with money and power. Government ministers pledged that ‘not a single grain will enter,’ and as usual, the reality is the opposite. Shameful.”

According to Israel’s Channel 12 News, the introduction of aid to Gaza has been halted until the IDF presents its new plan. The decision to pause deliveries was made shortly after Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich issued an ultimatum to Netanyahu: immediately stop aid from reaching Hamas or risk losing his support in the governing coalition. The suspension of aid will remain in effect pending the IDF’s recommendations.
