Updates: Israel, Gaza ceasefire possible ‘within next week’, Trump claims
These were the updates on Israel’s war on Gaza for Friday, June 27.
Gaza’s Government Media Office has expressed its “deep concern and condemnation” over the discovery of “narcotic pills of the type ‘Oxycodone'” inside flour bags distributed by the US- and Israeli-backed aid centres in the enclave.
“We have so far documented four testimonies from citizens who found these pills inside flour bags. More serious is the possibility that some of these narcotic substances were deliberately ground or dissolved in the flour itself, which raises the scope of the crime and transforms it into a serious attack directly targeting public health,” said the statement published by the Media Office on Telegram.
“We hold the Israeli occupation fully responsible for this heinous crime of spreading addiction and destroying the Palestinian social fabric from within, as part of a systematic policy that constitutes an extension of the genocide it is waging against our Palestinian people,” it added.
“The Israeli occupation’s use of drugs as a soft weapon in a dirty war against civilians, and its exploitation of the blockade to smuggle these substances as ‘aid and assistance’, constitute a war crime and a grave violation of international humanitarian law,” the statement said.
Okay, I'm calling bullshit on this one, as there were supposedly pills in the flour, not ground up Oxycodone. This sounds like hysteria.
