Popular Resistance Committees in Palestine: We warn of the danger of the return of the specter of starvation to cast its shadow over the Gaza Strip again, as the Zionist enemy continues to tighten restrictions on the entry of goods and humanitarian aid

Popular Resistance Committees in Palestine:

▪We warn of the danger of the return of the specter of starvation to cast its shadow over the Gaza Strip again, as the Zionist enemy continues to tighten restrictions on the entry of goods and humanitarian aid, exploiting the international community’s preoccupation to impose its criminal policies and deepen the humanitarian catastrophe suffered by our besieged Palestinian people.

▪The reduction in the flow of aid and goods and the continued obstruction of their entry portend the depletion of the remaining stock in the markets, and pave the way for the reimposition of starvation policy by leaving our people dependent on scant quantities of basic necessities, alongside the spread of misleading narratives aimed at covering up the reality of the acute shortage in supplies and the scale of the escalating humanitarian suffering.

▪We stress that food, medicine, and basic necessities are not bargaining chips for blackmail and extortion, and that continuing to restrict their entry threatens the lives of hundreds of thousands of our people, and requires serious international action that goes beyond statements of condemnation toward practical and tangible steps.

▪We call on the United Nations, international and humanitarian organizations, Arab and Islamic countries, and free people of the world, to shoulder their responsibilities and move urgently and exert pressure by all available means to open the crossings immediately, and to ensure the free, sufficient, and sustainable flow of goods, humanitarian aid, and basic materials, and to prevent making our people’s livelihood a weapon in the war of siege and starvation.

▪Remaining silent in the face of these policies deepens the catastrophe and gives the fascist Zionist enemy additional time to continue tightening the pressure on our people; Gaza cannot bear more waiting, and its people must not be left to face hunger, thirst, and deprivation alone.
