GAZA: Starvation or Gunfire -  This is Not a Humanitarian Response

NGOs call for immediate action to end the deadly Israeli distribution scheme (including the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation) in Gaza, revert to the existing UN-led coordination mechanisms, and lift the Israeli government’s blockade on aid and commercial supplies. The 400 aid distribution points operating during the temporary ceasefire across Gaza have now been replaced by just four military-controlled distribution sites, forcing two million people into overcrowded, militarized zones where they face daily gunfire and mass casualties while trying to access food and are denied other life-saving supplies.

Words are not enough – action is needed now to stop Israel’s siege of Gaza

Israel’s allies are finally speaking up against the intolerable suffering Israel is inflicting on the people of Gaza. But strong statements are not enough. It is beyond time for states to end military and security cooperation with Israel and take concrete measures to inhibit Israel’s capacity to commit crimes against the populations of Gaza and the West Bank.
