Ben Gvir says US Republicans back bombing 'food and aid depots' in Gaza

Israel’s far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir attended a private dinner in his honour at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, alongside Republican lawmakers and prominent business figures.

During the visit, Ben Gvir met House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, who, according to a statement, voiced support for the minister’s policies.

“They expressed support for my very clear position on how to act in Gaza and that the food and aid depots should be bombed,” Ben-Gvir posted on X, claiming such strikes would build pressure to secure the release of Israeli captives.
