Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that Israel had offered fuel to Gaza's Al Shifa hospital, which suspended operations after running out of fuel, but that the militants had refused to receive it.
Palestinian doctors were quoted as saying Israel dropped off a 200L fuel container on the street near the hospital. The hospital needs 20,000L to operate the critical sections, so they said that this gesture was useless, AND it was dropped off in an area of fighting where staff weren’t able to pick up up anyway.
Me in high school, just getting into international politics: “This is so great, learning about foreign issues so I know what to support and write my congresscritters about! I wonder which side is overall more in the right here?”
On one hand, I trust Netanyahu as far as I can throw him.
On the other hand, I trust Hamas as far as I can throw them.

For what it’s worth, I got it was a joke and upvoted accordingly.
