Israel's war on Gaza — now in its 127th day — has killed at least 27,947 Palestinians and wounded 67,459 others, as US Senator Bernie Sanders calls US "complicit" in the humanitarian crisis in the blockaded enclave.Saturday, February 10, 2024Independent Senator Bernie Sanders said Friday it is"unacceptable" for the US to send $14 billion to Israel, which is threatening a ground invasion in Rafah in besieged Gaza.
"The US Congress is prepared to spend another $14 billion on military aid to Netanyahu's right-wing government. Fourteen billion dollars more. And 10 billion of this money is totally unrestricted and will allow Netanyahu to buy more of the bombs, he has literally used to flatten Gaza and to kill thousands and thousands of children," he said.
His remarks came after Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the army to develop a dual plan to expel civilians from Rafah and to defeat the remaining Hamas fighters.
