U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has publicly condemned actions in Gaza, labeling them as 'genocide' and criticizing the Israeli blockade for pushing the region towards severe famine, affecting 1.1 million innocent people. She, along with other U.S. lawmakers, has called for the suspension of weapons transfers to Israel, citing the dire humanitarian situation affecting over 2.2 million Gazans. Seventeen Senators have also urged the U.S. administration to reassess the Netanyahu Government's assurances regarding humanitarian aid delivery, arguing they fail to meet the 'credible and reliable' criteria set by National Security Memorandum-20 (NSM-20). The situation is exacerbated by reports from humanitarian experts and organizations, highlighting the obstruction of U.S.-supported aid by Israeli authorities. This collective concern among U.S. legislators and humanitarian bodies underscores the urgent need for a reassessment of U.S. policy and aid practices in relation to Israel and Gaza.

By tomorrow @SecBlinken must determine whether Israel is credibly doing enough, under NSM-20, to facilitate the flow of US-supported humanitarian aid. Humanitarian experts are crystal clear on this: Israel continues to obstruct aid. The US must trigger action under NSM-20. https://t.co/hgfBswRVbA
The humanitarian response in Gaza—including U.S. funded humanitarian assistance—has been consistently and arbitrarily denied, restricted, and impeded by the Israeli authorities. The U.S. admin must acknowledge this fact in its NSM-20 assessment of Israel. https://t.co/CAZappxcuL
