IDF Assigns Senior Officer to Oversee Gaza Relief Operations
(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - IDF Brig.-Gen. Elad Goren has been appointed to oversee humanitarian aid efforts in Gaza as Israel prepares for prolonged responsibility over the area. His role parallels that of the head of the Civil Administration in the West Bank. "Dealing with Gaza will occupy us significantly in the coming years, even more than it does now," a senior defense official said. Israel's defense establishment is grappling with the challenge of ensuring that humanitarian supplies do not end up in the hands of Hamas, and efforts are underway to find alternative supply routes.
