Israel has been harshly criticized for withholding humanitarian aid in Gaza. So, I decided to interview the Israeli officer in charge of getting humanitarian aid into Gaza. Please watch the short video below to hear what is not presented by the media.
For a more in-depth analysis, watch the YouTube of my conversation with Shahar Azani of JBS TV concerning Israeli society after seven months of war, my time with battalions in Gaza, Judea, and Samaria, and an analysis of the situation in the Middle East.
I also have included some photos with captions to give you a flavor of my experience.
Please follow me on Instagram @drericmandel and watch for my new articles and interviews next week. They will help you better understand a complex region.
As always, please reach out if you have any questions.
Best, Eric
