White House expects Israel to allow flour shipment into Gaza

White House national security advisor Jake Sullivan said that Washington expects Israel to meet its commitment to allow a shipment of flour to be moved into Gaza.

The remarks were in response to a report that Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich was blocking a US-funded flour shipment to Gaza that the Biden administration was expecting to be allowed into the besieged enclave.
