Commenter, a public commenter, told the meeting that Gaza has gone “more than an entire month” without aid and urged an immediate ceasefire, the release of hostages and renewed humanitarian access.
The commenter said, “More than an entire month has passed without a drop of aid into Gaza. No food, no fuel, no medicine, no commercial supplies,” adding that as aid has stopped “the floodgates of horror have reopened” and calling Gaza “a killing field.” The speaker also said ceasefires have allowed for the release of hostages and the distribution of life-saving aid: “The cease fire allowed for the release of hostages. The cease fire ensured the distribution of life saving aids. The cease fire proved that the humanitarian community can deliver.”
The commenter cited international legal obligations, saying, “As the occupying power, Israel has unequivocal obligations under international law, including international humanitarian law and international human rights law,” and urged that humanitarian personnel be given protections required by those laws. The speaker warned of a risk that “the occupied West Bank [could] transform[] into another Gaza.”
They concluded by calling to “end the dehumanization, to protect civilians, release the hostages, ensuring life saving aid, and renew the ceasefire.” The remarks occurred during the meeting’s public comment period and were presented as the speaker’s assessment and recommendations; no formal action or vote was recorded in the transcript.
