It seems that the world’s focus on the Middle East has returned to the Israel-Husass war after the struggle with Iran, which has its peak in historical strikes on nuclear facilities in Tehran. For more than 20 months, Israel worked in Gaza in the wake of the Hamas surprising attacks on October 7, 2023.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) has been widely examined because of their dealings with the war, especially when it comes to damage to civil areas and the distribution of humanitarian aid. However, RT. British Colonel Richard Kemp Fox News told the digital that Israel is doing everything in its power to avoid civil losses whenever possible. Kembe, who recently returned from a trip to Israel and Gaza, said the war was “very difficult” as Hamas continues to include itself between the civilian population or the tunnels.

“In my opinion, the Israeli Defense Army was running it very effectively.” “They have killed huge numbers of Hamas terrorists. They have destroyed a lot of Hamas infrastructure, including some tunnels, but they have a long path yet. The fighting has not yet ended.”

In the evaluation of Kemb, the fighting in Gaza will continue until Israel defeats Hamas, which becomes a difficult task for an army that avoids the activity of civil losses, which was said by the former British officer that he witnessed “personally”.

Terrorism in Gaza: Hamas provides rewards for killing us and local relief workers, the group says

Kimp Fox News also told the digital deaths in Gaza “unavoidable” because of how Hamas works. He said that this is part of the “primary goal” of the terrorist group, which he says is “to obtain the Israeli Defense Army to kill the largest possible number of civilians so that they can achieve what they achieved, which is to distort Israel, isolate Israel, and to condemn Israel – accusations of war crimes and Genocide – nothing is true.” He praised the Israeli Defense Army, saying that the Israeli forces “have done a very unusual action that no other army could do to increase the destruction of Hamas to a minimum while reducing the death of civilians.”

While he was on the ground in Gaza, KEMP had the opportunity to speak with civilians and visit the aid distribution sites run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation supported by the United States and Israel (GHF). He said that the civilians who spoke with him were grateful for help and recognized the role played by the United States, during the era of President Donald Trump. At the same time, Hamas is responsible for their position in the “terrible situation in which they are now.”

Hamas faces a “legitimate crisis”, where a desperate invasion flows to US -backed relief centers

When asked about the criticisms faced by the GHF from the international community – especially the United Nations – Kemb said that the organization was working in a “uniquely suitable” situation in Gaza. He said that the United Nations is trying to implement a “standard solution”, which does not work with Gaza, as evidenced by the amount of aid that Hamas stole.

“Some of them told me that it was the first time since the war began, 20 months ago, they have already received any free help at all,” Kemp told Fox News Digital. He said that in some cases, Hamas was stealing aid and selling goods at distinguished prices that many civilians could not bear.

Keteb stressed the need for other countries and major humanitarian organizations to support GHF and noticed $ 30 million in financing the organization from the United States

“There is no other country that I know has contributed directly to the financing to GHF, and they should do so because GHF, not the United Nations, is the future of delivery of aid in Gaza,” Kimb told Fox News Digital. He also admitted that the United Nations has a role that plays it, but he added that it should be “in the interest of the people of Gaza, not bureaucracy.”
