The Council on American-Islamic Relations has joined the Israeli human rights organisation B’Tselem in condemning Israel’s “declared policy” of starvation in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.

“It is unconscionable that the Biden administration continues to support the far-right Israeli government’s declared policy of starvation of the entire population of Gaza, a gruesome tactic that is a clear violation of international law”, CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad said.
