Israeli Major Generals Ghassan Alian and Yoram Halevy, who headed the military's COGAT unit, directed and maintained a government-sanctioned total siege restricting food, water, medical supplies, fuel, and humanitarian goods to Gaza between October 2023 and mid-2026, according to reporting by Dawn. The current and former heads of the unit implemented systematic restrictions on essential supplies entering the enclave.
The allegations connect senior military leadership to the blockade's administration over a nearly three-year period spanning Israel's war in Gaza.
