Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said money he facilitated Qatar in sending to Gaza was recommended by Israeli security agencies, according to Al Jazeera English. The prime minister made the statement while discussing bombing operations, framing the aid delivery as part of a coordinated strategy with security officials rather than a unilateral decision.
Netanyahu's comments appear designed to defend decisions allowing Qatari funding into Gaza during the ongoing conflict. By linking humanitarian assistance to military operations and security recommendations, he suggested the aid transfers were integrated into Israeli security considerations rather than operating independently from them.
