U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Hackbee said during a press conference at the American Embassy in Jerusalem, amid reports of tension between Jerusalem and Washington, that 'there is no disagreement, sense of conflict, or issue dividing us. The President made that clear.' Hackbee detailed the mechanism for delivering humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip and emphasized that Israel supports this but will not be involved in its transportation and distribution: 'A private company will ensure the security of workers who will enter distribution centers and handle the distribution itself. There is a risk of famine in Gaza.'
