Families of Israeli captives block Gaza aid for third day in a row: reports

Families of captives held in Gaza and other protesters are holding a demonstration at the Israeli-controlled Karem Abu Salem crossing – called Kerem Shalom in Israel – to block humanitarian aid from entering Gaza for a third day in a row, Al Jazeera reports, citing multiple Israeli media reports.

Hundreds more protesters are expected to arrive at the border crossing throughout the day, according to Israeli media. The message of the protesters is that no humanitarian aid should be allowed into the besieged Gaza Strip until all remaining captives are freed and returned to Israel.
