GAZA, Aug. 4 (Xinhua) — Hamas on Sunday confirmed its readiness to fulfill a request from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to deliver food and medicine to Israeli captives in the Gaza Strip.

Abu Obeida, a spokesman for the Izzedine al-Qassam Brigades, the militant wing of the Hamas movement, said the move, however, was dependent on “the normal and permanent opening of humanitarian corridors for the passage of food and medicine to all areas of the Gaza Strip and the cessation of all forms of enemy air raids during the delivery of packages for the hostages.”

A. Obeida said the group “does not starve the hostages,” adding that “they eat the same food as our fighters and our people, and will not receive special privileges due to the crimes of siege and starvation.”

The statement came hours after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked ICRC regional head Julien Lerisson to provide hostages in the Gaza Strip with essential medicine and food.

Between Thursday and Saturday, Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad released videos showing three Israeli hostages in apparently grave condition. The videos sparked protests in Israel, where demonstrators called on the government to broker a ceasefire to secure the release of the Gaza hostages. –0–

SAO PAULO, Aug. 3 (Xinhua) — Brazil strongly opposes economic sanctions imposed because of its trade relations with other countries, a presidential adviser said Saturday.

“We are against economic sanctions in any case, except those authorized by the UN Security Council,” said Celso Amorim, special adviser to the Brazilian president, in response to the US demand to stop importing oil from Russia.

U.S. lawmakers who met with Brazilian lawmakers earlier this week called on Brazil to reduce or even stop importing Russian oil as part of talks to cut tariffs on Brazilian exports by 50 percent.

S. Amorim said Brazil will not accept US conditions on its energy policy to reach a tariff agreement and is against the use of economic influence for geopolitical purposes. –0–

CANBERRA, Aug. 4 (Xinhua) — The Australian government has allocated additional funds for humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.

Foreign Minister Penny Wong and International Development Minister Anne Ali on Monday announced that Australia would provide an additional A$20 million (US$12.9 million) to organisations delivering food, medicine and other vital aid to Gaza.

The new funding includes A$6 million (US$3.8 million) for the UN World Food Programme and A$5 million (US$3.2 million) each for UNICEF and the International Committee of the Red Cross.

The ministers said in a joint statement that the new aid package brings Australia's total humanitarian assistance to Gaza since October 2023 to more than A$130 million (US$84 million).

“Australia has consistently joined international calls for Israel to allow full and immediate resumption of aid to Gaza in accordance with the binding rulings of the International Court of Justice,” said P. Wong.

The funding was announced a day after tens of thousands of Australians joined pro-Palestinian protests in Sydney and Melbourne calling for an end to the war and famine in Gaza.

In Sydney, despite rainy weather and attempts by authorities to prevent the demonstration, about 90,000 people took part in a protest on the famous Harbour Bridge.

Social Services Minister Tanya Plibersek told the Seven Network on Monday that Australians wanted to "send a message" that there had been too many deaths. -0-
