Let aid into Gaza, stop 'genocide,' F1 driver Hamilton demands after Rafah crossing visit

Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton said on Wednesday that Israel must allow aid trucks into Gaza, a day after he visited the Rafah border crossing in Egypt.Hamilton, a seven-times world champion, arrived in El Arish on Tuesday, where he was briefed on how aid is prepared and coordinated before it is sent into Gaza, as he toured the Rafah crossing and the Egyptian Red Crescent's aid warehouses."The past three years of Israel's genocide in Gaza is appalling. It's an injustice for people to be denied their freedom, their safety and their dignity. No human being should be treated as though their life matters less," the Ferrari driver wrote on Instagram.Hamilton described seeing food trucks lined up and ready to go at the border that were regularly held up or faced major delays.Israel turns away items without good reason, Hamilton claimsHe said that at a nearby logistics center, items had been rejected for "crazy reasons," including sleeping bags, first-aid kits, medical equipment, wheelchairs, and footballs for children."Israel needs to fulfill its obligations under the ceasefire and let the aid trucks in. No excuse," he said. "I don't want us to get used to their suffering. I don't want us to look away."Hamilton, 41, is an advocate for humanitarian causes.
