The Gaza Media Office has raised an alarm, stating that 800,000 residents in the Gaza and northern governorates are on the brink of death due to Israel’s alleged policy of starvation and thirst in the enclave.
According to the statement, overcoming the hunger crisis requires 1,300 food trucks daily, with 600 for the north and 700 for Gaza city.
The statement accuses Israel of exacerbating a real famine, citing the reported deaths of 14 individuals who attempted to access food (details undisclosed). The Media Office warns of the deliberate efforts by the Israeli army to cause a severe famine in Gaza city and northern regions.
The army’s alleged actions include preventing aid, supplies, food, and provisions from entering the governorates. Reports also claim that the Israeli military has targeted drinking water pipelines and wells, hindering various aspects of daily life.
The statement places full responsibility for the catastrophic consequences on the international community, the United States, and the occupation forces, demanding an immediate cessation of hostilities.
