By agency report
U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has claimed that hunger in Gaza is the result of Hamas’ control over the food market.
Huckabee made the statement, which sparked controversy, during an interview with British journalist Piers Morgan on Monday.
“They don’t care that the people of Gaza eat, they care that they themselves eat,” Huckabee said.
He added that Hamas fighters “eat well and none of them are hungry, instead of food, they need some Ozempic,” referencing the popular weight-loss drug.
