VIDEO PODCAST: Israel sends winter aid to Gaza

Israel is letting as much aid as arrives into the Gaza Strip. But the coastal enclave cannot rebuilt until Hamas is removed as a threat.

Ninety-one thousand tents have entered the Gaza Strip since Israel launched its winterization plan, according to COGAT. This weekend, the first major winter storm of the season flooded displacement camps across the Strip and put those tents to the test.

Israel says rebuilding materials and mobile homes will not enter Gaza until Hamas disarms. Hamas has so far refused. So who is really holding the key to Gaza’s recovery?
