Russell: Some Good Answers Came Out of a Meeting with Israeli Officials, Including a Growing Awareness of the Need for Aid in Gaza

EXCERPT:

RUSSELL: "Well, we got some good answers, which is that I think a growing awareness of how critical it was for us to get more aid in and specifically what we needed, more access points, better security. You know, I'm certainly not the only person who made those arguments and advocated with the government of Israel, but we have seen a little bit of an improvement in Gaza. So that's a positive that came from it. Obviously, the needs still far, far outweigh what we're able to do, but at least we've seen some progress."
