The return to war will not save the hostages. Furthermore, Israel's aid distribution plans are already proving to be ineffective and problematic. Allowing in a token amount of aid will not significantly improve the humanitarian situation. Indeed, both sides need to make concessions so that the ceasefire can be fully implemented and the hostages are returned.
In contrast to the ludicrous claims made by pro-Hamas activists, Hamas has systematically stolen aid and caused Gaza's humanitarian crisis. Israel has even released video evidence of Hamas members looting aid trucks, yet international agencies continue to falsely claim that Hamas is not involved. Since day one, the primary driver of Gaza's suffering is Hamas.
Israel has consistently facilitated the looting of aid to exasperate Gaza's hunger crisis then blaming Hamas for a crisis it created. Considering that looting is the most prevalent in areas under Israeli military control and Israel's countless attacks on Gaza's local police force, it is quite obvious what Israel's intentions are. Indeed, Israel's genocidal war on Gaza continues unabated.
