NZ sanctions Israeli ministers as Gaza humanitarian crisis worsens: Should we be doing more?

More than 600 days of war and an 11-week blockade of all aid has pushed those living in Gaza into a deeper crisis. Israel imposed a full humanitarian blockade of Gaza in March, cutting off food, medical supplies, and other aid to the more than two million Palestinians living there. And while some aid has been allowed in in recent weeks, many countries are calling for more to be done. New Zealand has joined the condemnation, placing travel restrictions against two Israeli ministers, but is that going to be enough to send a strong message? Today on The Front Page, we’re joined by Alexander Gillespie to get into the latest on the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.
