Halifax Regional Police release Dartmouth suspect’s name and photo | SaltWire #news #novascotiaUNITED NATIONS -The United Nations on Tuesday warned that an Israeli assault on Rafah in the Gaza Strip was"on the immediate horizon" and that"incremental" progress by Israel on aid access to the enclave could not be used to prepare for or justify an operation.
Israel pledged nearly a month ago to improve aid access to the enclave of 2.3 million people after U.S. President Joe Biden demanded steps to alleviate the humanitarian crisis, saying the U.S. could place conditions on support if Israel did not act. Guterres specifically called on Israel to follow through on its promise to open two crossings to the north.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said he will discuss with Netanyahu on Wednesday measures that Israel still needs to take to increase the flow of aid into Gaza.
