Hamas has spent years stockpiling desperately needed fuel, food and medicine, as well as ammo and weapons, in the miles of tunnels it has carved out under Gaza.

Key thing is that the shortages in Gaza are a direct result of Hamas deciding to stockpile food, water, and fuel, and munitions in order to kill, rather than making sure everybody has enough.
And Netanyahu’s government has purposefully been legitimizing Hamas and undermining the PLO"s authority for just as long. Netanyahu does not want peace, he wants terrorists in control of Palestinian territories so he can justify brutality and conflict.
This is a complex issue that goes back many decades, Israel blatantly is trying to convince the world that “Hamas = Palestinians = bad” and “Support for the Palestinian people = anti-Semitism,” but the reality is Israel’s hands, particularly under Netanyahu, are not clean of this
