Famine declared by IPC in #Gaza Governorate is a direct result of actions by #Israel's Government that has unlawfully restricted entry & distribution of humanitarian aid.
It is a war crime to use starvation as a method of warfare, and the resulting deaths may also amount to a war crime - @volker_turk

The Gaza Famine is the world’s famine. A preventable, predictable famine. Enough. Ceasefire. Open all crossings, north and south. Let us get food in, unimpeded and at massive scale.
“#Famine is now confirmed in #Gaza City. This is starvation by design and manmade by the Government of Israel. It is the direct result of banning food and other basic supplies for months including from UNRWA,” says UNRWA Commissioner-General @UNLazzarini.
The spread of famine can still be stopped. It is a matter of political will.
We need a #CeasefireNow and humanitarian organisations must be allowed to do their work.
Let us bring aid into Gaza.
What Israel is doing to Palestinians:
-Genocide
-Ethnic cleansing
-Occupation
-Annexation
-War crimes
-Starvation
What the media calls it:
-Military operation
-Relocation plan
-Offensive
-Settlement project
-Takeover plan
-Hunger crisis
This is complicity, not journalism.
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.
The UK Government cannot stand by while children in Gaza are starved in plain sight.
No child should face this horror. The UK must uphold international law: hold Israel accountable and suspend all arms sales, including F-35 components.

More than half a million people in #Gaza are trapped in famine, according to a new IPC analysis.
Famine is confirmed when three critical thresholds – extreme food deprivation, acute malnutrition and starvation-related deaths – have been breached.
An immediate ceasefire is the safest way to ensure a large-scale humanitarian response that can save lives.

No end to the slaughter: At least 74 Palestinian people were killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza yesterday, including 36 people seeking aid supplies. https://t.co/k33dctsvVu
Israeli forces have killed Osama Al-Saidi, head of the medical laboratory at Muscat Medical Centre, and his son Yousef in an airstrike last night that targeted their apartment on Al-Naser Street in Gaza City.
They were civilians. Both were killed at home.

How many lives. How many childhoods. How many pregnancies. All the joy of having a child, all the pain of losing a child. All the trauma the survivors carry. All the guilt we bear. Humanity failed them all.
"Can we finally stop pretending that what we have been witnessing in Gaza over the past 22 months is a 'war,' a 'conflict,' or even a 'humanitarian crisis'?...W hat is being livestreamed to our phones on a daily basis is indeed a genocide." https://t.co/i1mJfwV8R0
Netanyahu says there "is no starvation in Gaza."
That’s a lie.
Trump and Congress must decide: will you continue to support the starvation of children, or are you willing to use all possible U.S. leverage to stop this horrific humanitarian disaster?
Trump says there's "real starvation" in Gaza, contradicting Netanyahu, adding that Israel has "a lot of responsibility" for limiting aid.

As starvation worsens in war-torn Gaza, UN agencies repeated warnings that Israel’s decision to support a “one-week scale-up” of aid is far from enough to reverse deadly malnutrition rates in the enclave.

“Gaza is more than a humanitarian crisis. It is a moral crisis that challenges the global conscience.”
– @antonioguterres says the UN will continue to speak out at every opportunity about the tragedy unfolding in Gaza and the need to release all hostages, immediately.
