Majority of Israeli public opposes aid to Gaza: Poll

A new Channel 13 survey has revealed that over half of Israeli respondents - 53 percent - oppose allowing humanitarian aid into Gaza, even as conditions in the besieged enclave continue to deteriorate and the UN warns of deepening famine in the strip.

The poll also included Palestinian citizens of Israel, who make up more than 20 percent of the country’s population, suggesting the number of Israelis opposing aid into Gaza could be much higher.

Reacting to the findings, Ayman Odeh, a Palestinian-Israeli parliamentarian, expressed deep concern.

“I don’t want to imagine the outcome without the Arab citizens. I don’t want to explain the survey results to my children,” he wrote on X.
