Gaza is being starved and the world looks on! Today, if people don’t die from the constant bombs, they die from hunger and disease.
Pictures and images on the social media are plenty:
The ongoing conflict in Gaza has lead to a sever humanitarian crisis with nearly half a million facing starvation. Reports show that 96 percent of the Gaza population is experiencing acute food insecurity with many resorting to desperate measure such as boiling weeds and and eating animal feeds to survive.
Israel has quitely openly said it will starve Gaza to get to Hamas. This was was famoustly said by Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant when he said “No electricity. No food. No fuel. No water,” for the people of Gaza. There will be a complete siege.
Today, starvation is complete, total, hermatically sealed between the north and south of Gaza. A picture of a child rummaging in garbage for scraps of food are a misnomer since there is no food here because Israel is the ultimate controller of what gets in and what gets out.
Children are dying of starvation in their parents’ arms as famine spreads through Gaza under different hashtags. #Gaza #GazaStraving #gazaunderseige #Israel_Enemy_of_Humanity #IsraelTerroristState
The use of starvation as a weapon is against international law but Israeli leaders believe they are exempt from that.
As well as the massive bombardment, Israel has induced a program of mass starvation on the people of Gaza by banning the entry of UN aid trucks from enter the territory.
Supplied with tons of aid, food and medical supplies thousands of trucks stay idle on the Gaza borders unable to enter without Israeli permission. Israeli has six border crossings with Gaza but all these are tightly shut.
The world will continue to hear the war of extermination and starvation against the Palestinian people. This is a war of hunger and thirst and it increases in intensity.
More than 50,000 children in Gaza are at risk of death from malnutrition as the policy of starvation continues to be applied .
One report by the Washington Post states that about 500,000 Palestinians are on the brink of starvation while aid groups say it has become increasingly dangerous to distribute aid in Gaza amidst Israel’s ongoing military operations and against aid trucks.
To whose who don’t believe Gaza is being starved there is plenty of evidence of the fact that there is mass hunger.
But there is no capitulation here. Palestinians here will remain steadfast.
