Russian president ‘willing to gamble on food security’ by stepping up strikes on grain ships, says UK prime minister
Keir Starmer has accused Vladimir Putin of disrupting food supplies to Gaza after British intelligence suggested Russia had stepped up its attacks on Ukrainian ports.
Starmer said it was clear the Russian president was “willing to gamble on global food security” after several grain ships en route to developing countries were damaged by Russian strikes.
Military intelligence published by the UK government overnight concluded that Russia had increased its attacks on Ukrainian port infrastructure in the Black Sea.
As opposed to all the food arriving to Gaza before? Make no mistake, Putin absolutely gives 0 fucks about Palestinian or any lives, but making him the bogeyman for starving Gazans is ridiculous. This is on the genocidal apartheid colony.
This has to be the most pathetic thing coming out of Starmers mouth yet. The guy is a lawyer for international law, who for the most part of the last year denied Israeli warcrimes, continued arms shipments, driven out party members critical of Israel, usually women, black and brown people, while making excuses for his white antisemite and racist friends to stay.
Britain is still delivering weapons, in particular F35 parts, supplying ome of the main weapon system used by Israel to bring annihilation to Gaza and Lebanon.
Fuck Putin and fuck all the other genocidial imperialist leaders.
Exactly, there’s no shortage of trucks lined up at the border just being held for ‘inspections’. There’s no issue with getting aid to Gaza, there’s issues getting it inside, and that’s not because of Putin.
They’re held for inspections since UNRWA and Iran regularly send weapons to Hamas via ‘aid’ trucks.
It’s why the US needs to keep up the pressure on Israel regarding weapons shipments for aid entering Gaza. It won’t ever speed up the processing of those held up trucks, since they still need to be inspected, but it forces Israel to send their own trucks, with aid they know is good, instead of leaving it to third parties who inevitably adulterate the aid. (That benefits Netanyahu)
There’s no evidence of UNRWA ever doing anything like that. And those aid trucks are provided largely by the same countries that provide Israel with weapons. Unless you’re going to claim USAID is also sending weapons to Hamas?
If they did that there wouldn’t be an Israeli-caused famine in Gaza right now.
Even American aid trucks are getting blocked. Joe Biden must be Hamas.

I think that’s what makes the Russian Federation’s actions so bad. With the situation being as dire in Gaza as it is right now, every scrap of edible nutrition that is allowed to make it in counts.
The Russian Federation may not be a friend of Israel, but clearly they aren’t going to do any good for Palestine either.
