Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel has "operated clans" in Gaza in a video published on social media Thursday after an opposition leader accused him of arming Palestinian militias in order to bolster opposition to Hamas.

The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation has closed its aid distribution sites for the day, without giving a date on when they would open again.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel has “activated” some clans of Palestinians in Gaza that are opposed to Hamas, though it was not immediately clear what role they would play

Greta Thunberg, Yasemin Acar and other activists are sailing to Gaza. The activist group they’re apart of, The Freedom Flotilla Coalition, is attempting to bring aid and raise international awareness over the ongoing humanitarian crisis.

An aid ship carrying environmental campaigner Greta Thunberg and other activists diverted from its planned route toward Gaza to answer a distress call from a stricken boat, according to one of the protesters onboard.

Activist Greta Thunberg said in a video released on Wednesday (June 4) the story the world needs to focus on is what she called Israel's "siege and oppression" of Gaza, rather than her voyage with a humanitarian group to deliver aid to the enclave.
