@ccferrie : same here in NL (no mention in https://nos.nl/liveblog/2565256-tientallen-doden-bij-israelische-aanvallen-in-gaza-schip-met-hulp-bij-malta-beschoten).
Instead, state-sponsored https://nos.nl/ again brought us propaganda.
The article marked red by me meanwhile fell to position 5 (see the screenshot at the left below). It refers to https://www.axios.com/2025/05/02/gaza-us-israel-agreement-aid, following up yesterday's https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-planning-major-shift-in-gaza-aid-delivery-in-bid-to-thwart-hamas-diversion/.
IMO that "news" is being broadcast to make western leaders, other politicians and citizens believe that the genocide will stop if they keep sitting back and do NOTHING.
It's a disgusting hoax. Propaganda.
Israel's primary condition is that "Hamas" does not receive any aid (see https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/israel-news/2391012/smotrich-threatens-to-bring-down-govt-if-aid-is-allowed-to-reach-hamas.html), which is impossible to achieve. Male members of Hamas are fathers, brothers and children of starving Gazans.
The IDF know that this is an impossible objective, which is why they said that THEY refuse to be responsible for distributing aid in Gaza (btw it's not just food that Gazans need). From the link I mentioned last:
“IDF soldiers will not distribute humanitarian aid and we will not starve Gaza.”
So apparently Israel now wants https://orbisops.com mercenaries to "take care" of the "protection" of food distribution in Gaza.
According to https://thecradle.co/articles-id/27879, Orbis was already competing for such a contract last year.
We shouldn't be buying these lies anymore.
