🔴 Hunger is widespread in Gaza and people are dying. 🔴 Deadly malnutrition among children is reaching catastrophic levels. 🔴 Food is dangerously scarce, and clean water is below emergency levels . 🔴 Aid is severely restricted and dangerous to access. This is a man-made…
People in #Gaza, including UNRWA colleagues, are fainting due to severe hunger. They are being starved. Meanwhile, just a few kilometers away from Gaza supermarkets and shops are loaded with food and other goods. Lift the siege. Allow UNRWA to bring in food and medicines.
Israel is starving Palestinians. BDS calls on all supporters to immediately escalate peaceful disruption and other forms of BDS pressure on states and the UN to force Israel to end the genocide and the siege of Gaza now.
don't look the other side when the UN Special Rapporteur,@FranceskAlbs denounces that #Israel's soldiers target hungry #Palestinian children in #Gaza in their heads and testicles: x.com/FranceskAlbs/s…
The Israeli Army is now targeting starving children in the head and testicles in Gaza, while terrorising others, together with violent lunatics, in the West Bank. These past 650 days, Israel has written one of the darkest pages of human history. And it is absolutely sickening…
Israel's Genocide Against Palestinians in Gaza: In a joint statement released Monday, twenty-five countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Canada, and Japan, called for an "immediate" end to the war in the Gaza Strip, which is besieged by Israel. "We (...) come together…
Al momento sono 25 gli stati, compresa l'Italia, che hanno diffuso una dichiarazione congiunta per chiedere "la fine immediata della guerra nella Striscia di Gaza". Abbiamo bisogno di fatti, non solo di parole: · vietare tutti i trasferimenti di armi; · sospendere l'accordo…

In #Gaza, people are being starved. Families can’t find flour. People are going without meals for days. Prices have increased by over 4,000 %. The Israeli Authorities have banned 🛑UNRWA from bringing food into Gaza for over 4 months. This is a manmade and politically…
Un errore grave, quello che il governo ha fatto, di isolare l’Italia nell’Organizzazione mondiale della sanità, rifiutando l’adozione del nuovo regolamento in caso di pandemia. Un errore perché non è con i no ideologici che si tutela la sovranità nazionale: nel caso della…
L’Italia (insieme a Ungheria & Co.) chiede di poter usare i pesticidi vietati. Il governo Meloni è il peggiore degli ultimi 30 anni. ilsalvagente.it/2025/07/17/lit… via @ilSalvagenteit
Netanyahu’s atrocities are not limited to Gaza. He has also unleashed terrorist settlers in the West Bank who attack civilians and recently beat a young American to death. Even Trump’s ambassador, Mike Huckabee, called this a “terrorist act.” NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.
