Surveillance: UN holds two-state solution meeting without US Israel
The UN held a summit to promote the Palestinian state as the Gaza War intensifies and global pressures are on its way.
One meal a day. She was forced to choose which of her children to be fed. In the market, all banks are closed and there is a cash liquidity crisis, so it’s $20 for one egg. $1,400 in a bag of flour that could last for 20 days.
This is a light-like gazan like Amal Nassar, the English teacher at Deial Bala, in the central part of the Palestinian enclave. Nassar, her three children, and her husband are more than 2 million Gazaans trapped in almost two years after Hamas began on October 7, 2023 after the attack on Israel.
“We’re not enough to eat,” Nasser said in a WhatsApp message over the weekend. USA Today writes about Nassar’s story of giving birth to his daughter Mira in a war zone without relieving pain.
On July 28, on the second day of the run, Israel suspended military operations in Gaza to “improve humanitarian response.” It follows a series of warnings from world leaders and global officials, from the United Nations World Health Organization, and from dozens of humanitarian institutions on a “dangerous trajectory” with malnutrition and even hunger in Gaza.
The United Nations World Food Program says that a third of Gaza’s population will not eat for several days at a time. One in four say they are “a state of permanent hunger.” Hamaslan Health Ministry, the main source of Gaza’s health data, says more than 100 people have died from malnutrition recently.
The Israeli conflict claims it is a deliberately hungry Gazan
Israel rejected the allegation that it was intentionally starving the Gaza population. It accused the United Nations of not gathering and distributing aid sitting on the Gaza border. For almost two years, Hamas has accused Gaza of stealing aid to the desperate and hungry population and using it as a weapon of control.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, “Gaza has no hunger policy, Gaza has no hunger in Gaza.
“From what I saw on TV, I can say that those kids look like they’re starving,” Trump said. ”We send a lot of money and lot of food. Children in Gaza must receive their food and safety immediately. ”
I’m hungry in Gaza
Recent reports show that there is little evidence of systematic Hamas aid theft. Amid growing international pressure, Israel has allowed the United Arab Emirates and Jordan to resume aid with flour, sugar and canned foods in Gaza. But aid workers say airdrops are not as effective as truck fleets.
Even a large transport plane cannot carry as much aid as a truck fleet. They are also dangerous. It is not uncommon for aid to be dropped from a plane to injure or kill those trying to reach them.
“We need more food to get into Gaza,” said Becky Ryan, director of Gaza Response, aid group. Ryan is in Dayalborough, where Care runs a health clinic. She said, “Everyone is hungry.” Her clinic has seen spikes in the case of children who are either malnourished or acutely malnourished, she said, and summer temperatures combined with limited water supply make things worse.
Ryan also said cases like Nassar are pretty typical in Gaza now. Most people are limited to one meal per day. They have to choose which of the children got the food. Cash to Gaza has not been permitted for almost two years and the market accepts cash only, so those lucky enough to earn a salary must pay twice as much to effectively purchase the cash they need to pay for sale.
Ryan said there are “multiple layers” explaining why it’s difficult for Gazans to get food. But most importantly, she said, “access to thousands of trucks sitting in Egypt and Jordan.” “It’s the fastest and most efficient way. Now we have very limited ability to move those tracks.”
For Nasser, it is secondary importance to blame the food for where it came from or who is missing it.
She said she and her husband would not be near a distribution center run by the American contractor, Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. They’re too scary. It is supported by the United States and Israel, but not the United Nations. International organizations have reported the deaths of hundreds of Palestinians trying to access these centres. Some of these deaths have been linked to Israeli gunfire and artillery fire by the United Nations. The foundation accused the United Nations of using “false and exaggerated statistics” for deaths.
Nasser said weeks could pass without the family eating a single piece of fresh fruit or vegetable. She said one of her daughter Mira’s diapers would cost as much as $10 in an extra cash charge. She uses plastic bags when she can’t afford diapers, but they give her a bleeding Mira rash. She says she is always worried about her children and they are losing weight. She herself is newly pregnant, exhausted and often dizzy.
“Our situation,” she said, “It’s really scary.”
