Amjad Shawa, director of the Palestinian NGO network, has warned that community kitchens still operating in Gaza only have enough food to last them a few days.
“For 54 days, the borders were closed totally. Nothing entered,” Shawa told Al Jazeera from Gaza City.
“Now, we are in a collapse of the humanitarian system. Our capacity to respond to these huge needs became more limited day by day. We have no food — no milk, no eggs, no meat,” he explained.
Shawa called on the international community to take action “to pressure Israel to stop its war and at the same time, to open these crossings” to allow humanitarian supplies into the enclave.
