Assessing Netanyahu's Speech to Congress

Aid groups and the United Nations warned of hundreds of thousands of Gazans facing starvation, contradicting Netanyahu's claim. Difficulties in distributing aid were mentioned, with sacks of flour and boxes of fruit piling up, showing challenges in reaching those in need.
