Months after some Israelis started to protest against aid lorries entering Gaza at the main Kerem Shalom crossing, the battle has moved to other key junctions, where rival groups of activists do their best to block or protect aid convoys.

Right-wing activists, including Jewish settlers living in the occupied West Bank, have uploaded dozens of videos of crowds, including some very young children, hurling food onto the ground and stamping on boxes of aid.

In one video, a group of jubilant protesters dance and celebrate on top of a looted lorry.

In another, one of the stranded lorries is ablaze.

In the West Bank, at least two drivers who were not carrying goods bound for Gaza were dragged from their cabs and beaten.

Other videos show Israeli vigilantes stopping lorries in Jerusalem and demanding that drivers show papers proving they are not transporting aid to Gaza. Their faces are uncovered and they appear to be acting with complete impunity.

    Not exactly. But if you disagree with their decision you’re automatically antisemitic.

      Oh you wait. People will say Hamas made them do it. Every time Israel has done anything people are even remotely able to call wrong in this war, someone pipes up and says that Israel has to do it because Hamas has forced their hand. Anything from killing children to torturing prisoners. It’s all Hamas’ fault every time to those people.
