The UN agency for Palestinian refugees termed the starvation in Gaza “an expression of absolute cruelty”, calling it “man-made and politically motivated”.
“It has been over 9 weeks of siege on Gaza, with the State of Israel banning the entry of all humanitarian aid, medical, and commercial supplies,” the group said in a statement on X.
“The longer this blockade continues, the more irreversible harm is being done to countless lives. UNRWA has thousands of trucks ready to enter, and our teams in Gaza are ready to scale up the delivery.”
