Israel government spokesman Eylon Levy suspended after comments about Gaza aid

Levy's suspension follows a tweet, in response to British Foreign Secretary David Cameron, that 'there are NO limits on the entry of food, water, medicine, or shelter equipment into Gaza, and in fact the crossings have EXCESS capacity'
In short: A UK parliament member said israel was blocking trucks at the Rafah crossing. Eylon Levy replied that israel wasn't blocking trucks at Rafah. The UK official then said Egypt told her israel was blocking it.
The UK official took it to
JamesDavid Cameron who also requested israel to stop blocking food on Twitter. Eylon then doubled down said the UK could send their own trucks through if they wanted and israel wouldn't block them. 100 a dayThen David Cameron asked israel) if this was their governments official position and the UK could send aid through. The israeli government then backtracked and denied that the UK could send aid trucks through. And Levy got suspended.
Is there nothing he can't do?
Cameroff?
Whoops
After looking a bunch I can't find anywhere where Levy backtracked or said that Israel blocks UK aid. Where are you getting that from?
A small correction the israeli government backtracked Levy's statement not Levy himself.
This article has more context but it omits the part where a British Parliament member earlier told about the trucks being blocked.
This article is about the first part: (happened recently before the article above)
