Palestinians in Gaza’s main city, emaciated and facing the threat of yet another displacement, accuse Israel — which rejects the UN’s findings — of deceiving the world with its ‘propaganda’
Famine is now occurring in Gaza City, according to the world’s leading authority on food crises. The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification released an analysis Friday, saying more than half a million people in Gaza are trapped in famine, suffering widespread starvation and preventable deaths.
U.N. Humanitarian Chief Tom Fletcher said that the famine that has struck part of Gaza was preventable, blaming the "systematic obstruction" of aid by Israel and demanding that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu let supplies in on a massive scale.
Thousands of pro-Palestine supporters gathered Friday outside the Israeli Embassy in London to draw attention to the genocide and famine in the Gaza Strip, where the Zionist regime have been brutally bombing the besieged enclave and imposing a blockade.
