Famine has been confirmed in Gaza, with over half a million facing starvation, destitution and death.
We have been warning about this impending tragedy for months. The UK can't say they didn't know this would happen.
All available evidence indicates that the Government of Israel is using starvation as a weapon of war.
This siege must end, and the full flow of aid restored.

#DYK that today lions inhabit only 8% of their former range?
Their populations have been dramatically reduced due to habitat loss, reduction in prey base & illegal trade.
Let’s act #ForNature & protect these magnificent creatures.
