OPINION: Israel violates international law by blocking vaccines to Gaza
The withholding of essential healthcare is war crime and a violation of all international laws and humanitarian standards, writes Mike Shingane.
"Priority is being given to medical staff working on the front line in the pandemic, then to sick elderly people."
Interior Minister Karl Nehammer said the raids were aimed at "cutting off the roots of political Islam".
Both the Erez crossing for people and Kerem Shalom crossing for goods had been closed on 4 May, when Gaza rulers Hamas and its ally Islamic Jihad fired hundreds of rockets at Israel.
The rocket hit an open field in Israel's Eshkol region, causing no casualties or damages, a local government spokeswoman said.
Security officials in Gaza said the strikes had not caused any casualties.
Netanyahu referred to a controversial Gaza ceasefire in November that ended the worst escalation between Israel and Hamas since a 2014 war.
The US draft won 87 votes in the General Assembly on Thursday compared to 58 against but fell short of a required two-thirds majority.
The rulings came three weeks after eight people were killed when an alleged Israeli army cell in Gaza was uncovered on 11 November, leading to a vicious firefight.
The latest flare-up was the worst since the 50-day conflict in 2014.
The groups, including Hamas, said in a statement on Tuesday they would abide by the ceasefire as long as Israel did the same.
The flare-up came after a deadly Israeli special forces operation in the Gaza Strip on Sunday that led Hamas to vow revenge.
As tensions rose following the clash, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office said he would cut short his trip to Paris, where he had been attending World War I commemorations, and return home.
The Gulf state will provide $100 each to 50,000 poor families in the 'next few days', a statement from Qatar's Gaza Reconstruction Committee said late Tuesday.
In a joint statement with allied militant groups, Hamas said it rejected 'all irresponsible attempts' to undermine Egyptian efforts to broker a new long-term truce.
Israel on Friday suspended fuel deliveries to the Gaza Strip, after fresh protests along the border that saw seven Palestinians killed by Israeli troops.
It was a show of force and defiance by Palestinian militants ahead of a meeting of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s security cabinet, where terms for a possible truce were likely to be on the agenda.
The violent instability - where Israel and Gaza are increasingly alternating between ceasefires and gunfire - is a classic form of brinkmanship.
Israel’s army declined to comment on the reported ceasefire, but a spokeswoman said there was no known military activity in the area.
