Sanders called Netanyahu &#8220;a disgusting liar&#8221; during an appearance on CNN, asserting that while Israel has the right to defend itself from Hamas attacks, its prolonged military operations have caused severe suffering to the Palestinian people. The Israeli government announced a temporary pause in fighting to allow humanitarian aid, including food supplies, into Gaza. Though, Netanyahu insisted there was no starvation, a claim disputed by both Sanders and former President Donald Trump, who acknowledged the existence of severe hunger in the region. The situation has led to deaths from starvation and chaotic scenes at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/israels-decision-to-arm-anti-hamas-militia-filled-with-risk\/\" title=\"...&#039;s decision to arm anti-... militia filled with risk\">aid distribution centers<\/a> in Gaza,highlighting the humanitarian crisis unfolding amid the conflict.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Bernie Sanders calls Netanyahu &lsquo;a disgusting liar&rsquo; for denying starvation<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2184417\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Sen. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/opinion\/beltway-confidential\/3410916\/democrats-hamas-hospital-bunkers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Bernie Sanders<\/a> (I-VT) condemned Israeli Prime Minister<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/senate\/3467072\/netanyahu-trump-gaza-denies-rift-full-coordination\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"> Benjamin Netanyahu<\/a> for denying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3483627\/trump-disputes-netanyahu-gaza-starvation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">reports of starvation<\/a> in Gaza since Israel&rsquo;s war against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/3483464\/trump-laments-donations-to-gaza-are-getting-stolen-by-hamas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Hamas<\/a> began.<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli Foreign Ministry announced that as of Sunday morning, fighting would pause in civilian centers and humanitarian corridors to allow Palestinians much-needed food supplies.
