In a statement, the Presidency called on the international community to take action “to stop the crimes committed against our people, which have reached an unprecedented level.”

It also denounced thefts of humanitarian aid from warehouses and depots in the coastal enclave, where more than two million people live.

Many UN agencies and NGOs warned of the serious humanitarian crisis in Gaza due to the total blockade implemented by the Israeli Army since March 2, which prevents the entry of food, drinking water, medicines, and fuel.

The current scenario might escalate into generalized famine in the territory, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the World Food Program (WFP), and the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) warned this week.

A few days ago, the Palestinian Foreign Ministry condemned the collapse of Gazans’ living conditions due to “the escalation of destruction and comprehensive devastation” of the Israeli Army.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates criticized the “systematic policy of depriving defenseless civilians of food, water, and medicine since March 2, through the complete closure of the border crossings.”
