People are eating food meant for birds and animals: Jabalia resident

Palestinians at the Jabalia refugee camp market in the northern Gaza Strip expressed their suffering as they looked to secure daily food sustenance amid dire shortages of flour and food in the markets and an absence of humanitarian aid, Al Jazeera reports.

“We have no food, only some rice. We do not have flour. There is crowding over the available quantities,” AJ reports one of the Gazans as saying.

“We have been living in suffering for 104 days. Today we are searching for our daily food. There is no flour or wheat. People eat corn, and this is food for birds and animals, not for humans” another person said.
