The rhetoric of Red Cross President Mirjana Spoljaric — who claimed that Hamas and Israel were equally to blame for her organization’s inability to access the Israeli hostages held by the Palestinan terror group — was “shocking,” the group’s former Israeli spokesperson told i24NEWS on Sunday.

“I watched this interview four times today and I couldn’t believe what she said,” the former Spokesperson of ICRC Delegation in Israel Yehonatan Sabban.

Spoljaric told Israel’s Channel 12 that “now Israel has to negotiate with Hamas through an intermediary, which is Qatar in this case. They must find this agreement so that we are let know where the hostages are because we currently don’t know where they are. We don’t know when and where to go to access them. That’s the simple fact. We cannot enforce this.”

Asked by her interviewer whether allowing access to the hostages was the responsibility of Hamas or Israel, the official said “both.”

The Red Cross has been widely criticized for its functioning during the hostage crisis, with its spokespeople struggling to answer questions regarding the apparent disparity between its mission, as outlined in its charter, and the lackluster nature of its efforts to reach and deliver medicine to the Israeli hostages. –i24 News

  1. The Red Cross isn’t much different that the Vatican’s symbol. It is not representative of a body who cares about Jews just as the church never was.

  2. the red cross has always been antisemitic – they collaborated with nazi germany and they collaborated with hamas. they should be banned from operating in israel.
