On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” USAID Administrator Amb. Samantha Power argued that Israel hasn’t made enough improvement on helping aid reach Gaza, where she acknowledged “There’s criminality. There are gangs. There are armed elements there.”

Fighting between Israel and Hamas, hostility from gangs and the closure of the Rafah border crossing have slowed the flow of desperately needed aid into Gaza.
