In a significant diplomatic move, Israeli President Isaac Herzog has called on the global community to back a novel approach for delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza. This strategy intends to sideline the Palestinian group, Hamas, from controlling aid distribution.

During a recent event in Berlin, Herzog emphasized that the new mechanism aims to directly reach the Gazan populace, thus ensuring that assistance is efficiently utilized. He stressed the importance of international collaboration with NGOs and the United Nations in refining and implementing this plan.
