WORLD CENTRAL KITCHEN WILL RETURN TO WORK IN #GAZA TOMORROW

WCK stopped all operations in Gaza after Israel killed 7 employees, but the work is set to resume once again.

#WCK Spokesperson:

“We will continue to bring as much food as possible into Gaza, by land, air or sea.

We had to make a decision - to stop feeding altogether during one of the worst hunger crises ever or to continue feeding knowing that aid workers and civilians were being killed.

We considered all the options, but ultimately, we decided to continue to feed and continue our mission.”

Please, please, please do not forget that over half a million people are surrounded by IDF forces with limited to no food at all.

The media and most activists are focused on protests in US and Biden's paying for the ongoing genocide, but forgetting the emergency situation in Gaza.

With no internet, no foreign reporters and world's focus on other issues, the men, women and children of northern Gaza dying slowly and silently.

Israeli, US aid truck statistics are ‘a complete lie’: #Gaza media office

The government media office in Gaza says the total number of aid trucks entering the Gaza Strip on a daily basis ranges, on average, between 130 and 150 trucks.

In a press release, the media office said the Israeli “narrative” adopted by the United States that there are around 300 aid trucks entering the Gaza Strip daily “is a complete lie and a falsification of reality”.

The office said that the areas in northern Gaza are still suffering from a real food crisis and that the only way to stop the famine in northern Gaza and address the food crisis across the whole enclave is to open all crossings.

Since the start of April, no more than 2,800 trucks have entered the enclave, according to the media office.

“The occupation deliberately lies about the humanitarian reality inside the Gaza Strip, and has been promoting a false narrative for some time about improvements in the mechanism of bringing aid in and increasing the number of trucks entering the Strip,” the statement read.

“This was denied by the World Food Programme, when it announced last Thursday that only 392 aid trucks loaded with food had entered the Gaza Strip during the month of April.

The media office said its numbers were in line with those of the United Nations, which confirmed in a post on X that only 392 trucks loaded with food have arrived since the beginning of April.

Children are dying of starvation in northern Gaza, World Health Organization chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus says, citing a #WHO team that visited two hospitals.

Famine is imminent and likely to occur by May in northern Gaza and could spread across the enclave by July, the Integrated Food-Security Phase Classification says.
People in northern Gaza are forced to survive on 245 calories a day.

People in northern Gaza are forced to survive on 245 calories a day

“Israel is making deliberate choices to starve civilians. Imagine what it is like, not only to be trying to survive on 245 calories day in, day out, but also having to watch your children or elderly relatives do the same. All whilst displaced … and under the constant threat of drones and bombs.”
Amitabh Behar, Oxfam International executive director

I guess the heroic action of western nations dropping 15g of food and water per person, per day, wasn't enough to keep this child alive.

A 10-year-old Palestinian boy, Karam Mohammad Qadada, has died as a result of dehydration ans malnutrition at Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza as a result of the ongoing Israeli war of starvation on the region, according to local and media sources.

“An entire Economist article on famine in Gaza doesn’t say the word “Israel” once. Not even when describing damage to farmland and water facilities or severely restricted aid deliveries. Saying who is destroying the farmland and restricting aid seems like basic info to include.”

The #ICJ mandated additional measures against Israel “in view of the worsening conditions of life faced by Palestinians in Gaza, in particular the spread of #famine and #starvation.”

Israel must ensure immediate, unhindered humanitarian aid, including food, water, electricity, fuel, shelter, clothing, hygiene, and medical care with #UN cooperation.

This also includes opening land crossing points into Gaza for as long as necessary.

Israel must not carry out any military actions that infringe on Palestinians’ rights under the #Genocide Convention and prevent the delivery of urgently needed humanitarian assistance.

Israel is letting in enough food to prevent palestinians passing the UN level for #famine.

It's just an unbelievable evil calculation to make sure palestinians in @Rafah and northern #Gaza have enough food to keep them famished, but not dying at a rate UN and EU can declare it man made famine.

Sadly, #US and most European nations helping them in this evil act in the name of humanity and saving the palestinians.

Un cessez-le-feu à Gaza ?

C’était un vote historique le 25 mars. Le Conseil de sécurité de l’ONU a approuvé une résolution proposée par l’Algérie exigeant un cessez-le-feu à Gaza pour la durée du Ramadan.

L’ONU est l’organisation internationale qui regroupe 193 États et a pour but de maintenir la paix dans le monde depuis la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale. Son Conseil de sécurité compte 5 États membres permanents : la Chine, les États-Unis, la Russie, la France et le Royaume-Uni. Un seul de ces pays s’est abstenu : les États-Unis, mais il n’a pas pour autant posé de veto, ce qui a permis à la résolution d’être validée.

Après 5 mois de génocide, au moins 32.000 morts dont plus de 10.000 enfants, des dizaines de milliers de blessés et une #famine généralisée, l’ONU réclame enfin un arrêt du #massacre. Une mesure temporaire, et qui arrive beaucoup trop tard, mais qui était un maigre espoir de voir l’immense souffrance des habitants de Gaza amoindrie.

Le gouvernement israélien a immédiatement balayé cette décision et défié l’ONU. Le ministre fasciste Itamar Ben-Gvir a déclaré : «La résolution du Conseil de sécurité prouve que l’ONU est antisémite et que son secrétaire général est antisémite et encourage le Hamas». Le ministre de la défense Yoav Galant a renchérit : «Nous n’avons pas le droit moral d’arrêter la guerre tant qu’il y a des otages à Gaza». Ce dernier avait déjà asséné en octobre dernier : «Gaza ne reviendra pas à ce qu’elle était avant. Nous éliminerons tout», «Nous avons aboli toutes les règles de la guerre, il n’y aura pas de tribunaux militaires», et désigné les palestiniens comme étant des «animaux humains».

Le 24 octobre, déjà, Israël avait réclamé la démission du secrétaire général de l’ONU pour avoir simplement évoqué l’occupation israélienne.

Nous avons un gouvernement fasciste et messianique qui commet un génocide sous nos yeux, et qui menace les instances internationales. Pour couronner le tout, il piétine une décision de l’ONU. Si la communauté internationale est cohérente, elle peut envoyer des forces armées en Israël pour faire respecter sa résolution. D’autres régimes ont été destitués par le «camp du bien» pour bien moins que cela.
