The Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that the impunity of the occupation for the war crimes it has committed and its violations of international law is what has encouraged the starvation of the besieged Gaza Strip. This was stated in a statement issued by the ministry, which referred to the 'Integrated Food Security Phase Classification' report supported by the United Nations.

The statement clarified that the report revealed the extent of the humanitarian disaster resulting from the genocidal policies pursued by the occupying government, noting that these policies have exacerbated the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

The Turkish Foreign Ministry also affirmed that achieving a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, ensuring that those responsible are brought before international courts, and keeping humanitarian corridors open are among the simplest duties imposed by international law.

The report released on Friday confirmed that famine in the Gaza Governorate has been established, with expectations of its extension to the Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis Governorates by the end of next September.

In a swift reaction, the occupying state attacked the report, claiming that it was based on phone testimonies, despite relying on reliable data and facts.

The starvation crisis in Gaza has worsened, with the death toll from malnutrition rising to 281 martyrs since October 2023, including 114 children, according to health ministry statistics.

Since March 2, the occupation has closed all crossings leading to Gaza, preventing any humanitarian aid, resulting in a state of famine despite relief trucks piling up at the border.

The crimes of the occupation have continued since October 7, 2023, including genocide, killing, starvation, and destruction, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice.

The Israeli genocide has left more than 62,000 martyrs and 157,000 injured, most of whom are children and women, in addition to more than 9,000 missing and hundreds of thousands displaced.

Local sources reported that an Israeli soldier was martyred in Khan Younis, south of the Gaza Strip, during a resistance operation against the occupation army. This event comes amid a rise in operations against Israeli forces in the area.

Israeli media typically use the term 'difficult security event' to refer to operations carried out by resistance factions, which often result in casualties among the occupation army.

Tensions in the region are escalating, as resistance factions seek to confront the occupation and respond to repeated assaults against the Palestinian people. These operations reflect the determination of the resistance to defend the rights of Palestinians.

It is noteworthy that Khan Younis has recently witnessed numerous military operations, increasing the intensity of the conflict and reflecting a state of instability in the region.

Resistance factions continue to carry out their operations despite Israeli threats, demonstrating the strength of will and resistance among the Palestinian people in the face of occupation.

The Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, stated that the Israeli government must stop denying the famine it has caused in the Gaza Strip. This came in a post on the 'X' platform, where he urged all influential figures in the world to use their influence with determination and a sense of moral duty to deter Israel from deepening the famine in the besieged sector.

Lazzarini added: "It is time for the Israeli government to stop denying the famine it has caused in Gaza." He emphasized the need for swift action to stop the famine, noting that "every hour counts."

Lazzarini's statements come in response to a report published on Friday by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), which confirmed that famine in the Gaza Governorate has been verified. The report also predicted that famine would extend to the Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis Governorates by the end of next September.

In this context, the Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed that the United Nations' announcement of famine came "late," but reflects the reality of Israeli starvation policies in the sector. The ministry noted that the death toll from malnutrition since October 2023 has reached 281 Palestinians, including 114 children.

Despite allowing a limited number of humanitarian aid trucks to enter about three weeks ago, famine continues, as most of those trucks are being stolen by local gangs allegedly protected by Israel. Since March 2, Israel has closed all crossings leading to Gaza, preventing any humanitarian aid.

It is worth noting that the Israeli aggression against Gaza, supported by the United States, since October 7, 2023, has led to a genocide that includes killing, starvation, and destruction, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice. This aggression has resulted in over 62,000 deaths and 157,000 injuries, most of whom are children and women.

A new opinion poll shows that 72% of Israelis support a prisoner exchange deal with Hamas, while 62% expressed a lack of confidence in Benjamin Netanyahu's government. This poll, conducted by the Lazar Institute for Research, included 509 adult Israelis, reflecting a significant decline in support for the government.

The poll results indicate that 62% of participants believe the current government does not enjoy public trust, while 27% said it does. Additionally, 11% indicated they do not know. These figures point to a major trust crisis facing the occupying government.

Furthermore, 72% of respondents supported a deal to bring back prisoners from the Gaza Strip, with 46% considering the deal should be comprehensive to end the genocide, while 26% believed it should be partial and urgent. In contrast, only 18% opposed reaching a deal.

These results contradict statements made by ministers in Netanyahu's government, as Settlement Minister Orit Strock claimed that the vast majority of the public in Israel sees the necessity to continue fighting. These statements reveal a gap between what the government says and what the public believes.

Netanyahu, who previously attacked polls showing support for a deal with Hamas, accused them of misleading public opinion. He considered that media channels' studios promote Hamas propaganda, reflecting his dissatisfaction with the poll results.

This poll comes at a time when pressure is increasing from families of Israeli prisoners to move forward with a deal that guarantees the release of their loved ones. Netanyahu has instructed to begin immediate negotiations for their release, alongside a plan to occupy what remains of the Gaza Strip.

Reports indicate that the American proposal for a ceasefire includes the redeployment of Israeli forces near the border to facilitate the entry of humanitarian aid, with a temporary ceasefire lasting 60 days. During this period, the exchange will be implemented in two phases.

Despite this, Tel Aviv continues its military plan to occupy what remains of the Gaza Strip, raising concerns about worsening humanitarian conditions. Since the beginning of the aggression on October 7, 2023, the occupation has committed genocide in Gaza, resulting in the martyrdom of over 62,000 Palestinians.

In 1935, Italy, led by Mussolini, launched an aggression against Abyssinia, and the League of Nations failed to take a decisive stance to stop this aggression. The positions of the major powers at the time varied, as there were fears of pushing Italy to ally with Nazi Germany. Despite the decisions made by the League in favor of Ethiopia, these decisions were not implemented, leading to Italy's withdrawal from the League.

Today, it seems that history is repeating itself with the Zionist occupation in Palestine, where international positions of inaction are recurring. The Secretary-General of the United Nations and many international organizations have condemned the starvation war waged by the occupation against our people in Gaza, but these condemnations remain ineffective due to the American veto that protects the occupation.

The delayed stance of the United Nations reflects the stagnation of the international organization and its inability to make binding decisions under Chapter VII of the UN Charter. This incapacity threatens the organization's existence, especially if unconditional American support for the occupation continues without any balance.

International relations are heading towards a state of absolute incapacity to stop the war against the Palestinian people, threatening to paralyze the international system. The absence of any role for international laws and treaties leaves the world in a state of chaos, where the law of the jungle prevails.

The predicament that the world is experiencing due to the American veto confirms that what is happening in Gaza is not merely an assault on a people, but an assault on the international system. This situation poses a threat to the security of the entire world and reflects the international community's inability to protect human rights.

If the situation continues as it is, we may witness the dissolution of the United Nations and all its affiliated organizations, which could lead to global chaos. The international community must address this crisis towards a more effective and just system.

Medical sources in the Gaza Strip announced today, Saturday, that the death toll has risen to 62,622 dead since the start of the occupying aggression on October 7, 2023. Reports indicate that most of the dead are children and women, reflecting the scale of the humanitarian disaster faced by the region.

The sources also reported that the number of injured has increased to 157,673, while rescue and civil defense teams continue to face significant difficulties in reaching many victims still trapped under the rubble.

In the past 24 hours, 61 dead and 308 injured individuals have been recorded as arriving at hospitals in the Gaza Strip, adding new burdens to a healthcare system already damaged by the ongoing aggression.

Since March 18, following the occupation's breach of the ceasefire agreement, the death toll has risen to 10,778 dead and 45,632 injured, indicating an escalation in the intensity of the aggression and assaults.

Hospitals in the region have also recorded 8 deaths in the past 24 hours due to famine and malnutrition, raising the total number of deaths from these causes to 281, including 114 children, reflecting the tragic situation endured by the population.

The suffering of the residents of the Gaza Strip continues amid the siege and aggression, as humanitarian conditions deteriorate rapidly, necessitating urgent intervention from the international community to end this tragedy.

Many global newspapers have highlighted the catastrophic situation in the Gaza Strip following the United Nations' official declaration of famine. The British newspaper The Guardian considered that this announcement will increase pressure on the occupying state to ease the restrictions imposed on the entry of food supplies into the besieged sector.

The director of the NGO Network in Gaza, Amjad Al-Shawa, described the situation as the worst in the sector's history, emphasizing that the population is suffering from hunger and extreme fatigue. He pointed out that providing food has become an urgent necessity to avoid the dire consequences that may result from the continuation of this situation.

An investigation conducted by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz concluded that hunger is spreading throughout Gaza, and the situation is generally catastrophic. American anesthesiologist Travis Millin, who volunteers at Nasser Hospital, confirmed that severe emaciation has become evident on the bodies of patients, noting that the residents of Gaza have become shockingly thinner compared to last year.

In a related context, The Washington Post reported that doctors and nurses in Gaza have raised their voices in recent weeks due to the increasing number of patients suffering from malnutrition. Australian nurse Kirsty Blacker mentioned that emaciated men were coming to the hospital looking much younger due to hunger.

A report by The New York Times stated that relief agencies have a stockpile of supplies sufficient to feed the residents of Gaza for at least three months, but the conditions imposed by the occupying state hinder the effective distribution of those supplies.

Relief officials warned that hunger and its complications will lead to the deaths of more residents of Gaza if they are not allowed to deliver large quantities of aid in safe and rapid ways. This situation requires urgent action from the international community to save lives.

On another note, writer Amotz Asa-El, in an article published by The Jerusalem Post, called on the Israeli government to sign a comprehensive agreement to end the war in Gaza, return the hostages home, and support potential plans for Gaza's future to ensure freedom and regional stability.

In its editorial, the British newspaper The Independent viewed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu prioritizes his personal interests at the expense of peace, adding that the occupying state continues its reprehensible actions and turns this chaos into official policy. Nevertheless, the newspaper believes that the occupying state is now less secure than it was before launching this asymmetric war.

Mohammed Abu Mghaisib, assistant coordinator for medical affairs at Médecins Sans Frontières, pointed out that the situation in the besieged Gaza Strip is worse than can be described as 'catastrophic.' He confirmed that the siege and the genocidal crimes committed by the occupying state for the past 22 months have led to a near-total collapse of the health system in the region.

Abu Mghaisib explained that the Israeli army is targeting hospitals and the health system, resulting in most hospitals being out of service. He emphasized that the health situation is worsening with the Israeli army's plan to reoccupy the city of Gaza, putting the lives of patients and the injured at risk.

Abu Mghaisib spoke about a severe shortage of medicines and medical supplies, as the Israeli closure of the crossings since last March has prevented humanitarian aid from entering. He confirmed that health facilities have witnessed widespread destruction, and there is no health system at all in Gaza.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that hospital occupancy rates have reached 300 percent, reflecting the scale of the health and humanitarian disaster. Abu Mghaisib explained that patients are sleeping on the floor due to the lack of beds, and many surgeries are not being performed due to a lack of resources.

Regarding humanitarian aid, Abu Mghaisib stated that only a few trucks have entered the region recently, but they were insufficient. He confirmed that the food situation in Gaza is worsening, with no food or medicine available, leading to severe famine.

Abu Mghaisib pointed out that the children who are dying of hunger in Gaza could be alive if basic food supplies were available. He confirmed that famine has been confirmed in the Gaza governorate, and it is expected to spread to other areas.

Abu Mghaisib discussed the distribution of aid through the Gaza Humanitarian Relief Foundation, noting that it has only established 4 distribution points compared to the 400 points managed by the United Nations. He considered the method of aid distribution to resemble scenes from horror movies.

Regarding the Israeli plan to reoccupy Gaza, Abu Mghaisib said that the Israeli army currently controls 75 percent of the region, creating severe overcrowding. He confirmed that the occupation would be a real madness, as there is no place that can accommodate two million people.

Abu Mghaisib clarified that the situation in Gaza requires urgent intervention from the international community to stop the aggression. He confirmed that people here are living under immense pressure and do not know where to go.

Finally, Abu Mghaisib pointed out that the genocide being committed by the occupying state with American support ignores international calls, resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinians, most of whom are children and women.

23 Palestinians have been killed, including 6 children, since dawn on Saturday, as a result of sporadic attacks launched by the occupation forces on various areas of the besieged Gaza Strip. These attacks come as part of the ongoing aggression faced by Palestinians in the strip, which includes targeting homes and tents that shelter the displaced.

In the latest attacks, one Palestinian was martyred and others were injured due to Israeli artillery shelling around '10' Street south of Gaza City. Another Palestinian was martyred by Israeli gunfire while waiting for aid in the Zikim area west of Beit Lahiya.

The attacks continued in various areas of the strip, where several Palestinians were injured by occupation gunfire while waiting for American aid in southern Khan Younis, and others were martyred in shelling that targeted the home of the Abu Jayab family in Deir al-Balah.

In the southern strip, 16 Palestinians were killed, including 6 children, due to air and artillery strikes that targeted the tents of the displaced near the gate of Asda City. Another Palestinian was martyred by occupation gunfire while near a distribution center for aid.

Since May 27, the occupying state has begun distributing aid through what is known as the 'Gaza Humanitarian Relief Foundation,' which is internationally rejected. This mechanism has resulted in the martyrdom of 2,060 Palestinians and the injury of more than 15,000 others, leading it to be locally referred to as 'death traps.'

In the central strip, 3 Palestinians were killed due to the targeting of a home belonging to the Al-Hamidi family in the Al-Maghazi camp. Another Palestinian waiting for aid was martyred by occupation gunfire in the vicinity of the Netzarim axis.

In the northern strip, intensive Israeli airstrikes continued on the Al-Zeitoun neighborhood, coinciding with extensive demolition operations of buildings. These attacks are part of the occupation's plan to reoccupy the city and the entire strip.

On August 8, the Israeli government approved a plan for the gradual occupation of the Gaza Strip, which includes the displacement of residents and the occupation of refugee camps. This plan aims to establish security control over the strip and create an alternative civil administration.

Since October 7, 2023, the genocide in Gaza has continued with American support, resulting in the martyrdom of more than 62,000 Palestinians, most of whom are children and women, leaving hundreds of thousands of displaced individuals in tragic humanitarian conditions.

Channel 12 revealed deep disagreements between the political level in Tel Aviv, led by the occupying Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and the military institution of the occupation regarding the timeline for the anticipated military operation in the city of Gaza. While the political level is pushing to accelerate the attack, the occupying army emphasizes the necessity of acting responsibly and cautiously to avoid a 'strategic trap.'

These disagreements come at a critical time, as discussions continue regarding a new prisoner exchange deal. There are increasing calls within the security apparatus to prioritize the return of the detainees over any large-scale military action, reflecting a divergence in priorities between politicians and military officials.

The security apparatus of the occupation clarified that there are four strategic constraints that must be considered before giving the green light for any attack. These constraints include the safety of the detainees, as there are fears that any large-scale ground attack could put the lives of the prisoners in direct danger.

Additionally, the constraints include the safety of the occupying soldiers, as the operation requires careful and thoughtful planning to minimize casualties among the attacking forces. Furthermore, there is a huge logistical and humanitarian challenge represented by the evacuation of about one million Palestinians from the city.

International legitimacy also plays an important role, as it is essential to maintain international cover and support for the operation, which could quickly erode in the event of a humanitarian disaster. The occupying army asserts that its position is not about 'time-wasting,' but rather an insistence on 'thoughtful preparation' to ensure the success of the operation.

In a related context, the Hebrew channel revealed that discussions regarding the prisoner exchange deal are ongoing, and that Hamas has expressed a willingness to reach an agreement under the same terms that Netanyahu approved two months ago, but later retracted his approval.

This development reinforces the impression that Netanyahu may prefer a military solution for internal political reasons, even with a real opportunity to reach a diplomatic deal. Amid this debate, the Hebrew channel quoted an official from the occupation emphasizing the necessity of giving the highest priority to the detainee issue.

This voice reflects an increasing current within Israel that sees time running out, and that any uncalculated military adventure could eliminate the last chance to return the detainees alive.

An UN official has called for urgent action to address the outbreak of famine in the besieged Gaza Strip, noting that this is the first time famine has been confirmed in the Middle East. This came during a press conference held by the Director of Food Security Analysis and Nutrition at the World Food Programme.

During the conference, Jan Martin Bauer pointed out that famine means severe food deprivation and acute malnutrition, leading to deaths from hunger. He considered that the situation in Gaza requires an immediate humanitarian response to ensure adequate food provision for the population.

Bauer also emphasized the importance of protecting data systems that will guide humanitarian responses, stressing the need for coordination among stakeholders to provide necessary assistance. He explained that this situation represents a historic moment for the Middle East, as famine has never been confirmed in this region before.

This warning comes at a time when the Gaza Strip is suffering from a suffocating blockade, exacerbating humanitarian and economic conditions. The population needs urgent support to meet their basic needs, especially amid shortages of food and water.

Concerns are growing that the continuation of the current situation could lead to a further outbreak of famine, necessitating urgent intervention from the international community. There must be a comprehensive response that includes providing food and medical assistance to the affected population.

The Israeli occupation forces continue their extensive aggression against the village of al-Mughayer, located northeast of Ramallah, for the third consecutive day. The village is witnessing raids and destruction of property, which increases the suffering of its residents.

The Deputy Head of the al-Mughayer Village Council, Marzouk Abu Naim, reported that the occupation forces raided more than 30 homes since dawn today, accompanied by threats and provocations from the soldiers, in addition to the destruction of property and attacks on citizens' vehicles through smashing and vandalism.

Abu Naim also added that the occupation bulldozers continue to carve out a colonial road from the 'Al-Rafid' area to the 'Qalason' area. This work has led to the destruction of thousands of dunams planted with olive trees, as they have been completely cleared.

He pointed out that the occupation began two days ago to raze the eastern plain of al-Mughayer, which borders the colonial 'Alon' road, most of which is planted with olive trees, reflecting the occupation's policy of destroying the natural resources of the Palestinians.

It is noteworthy that hundreds of citizens have been forced to spend the night in neighboring villages due to repeated assaults on the village and its properties, as entry and exit from the village has been prohibited, including ambulances.

The occupation forces closed the entrances to the village last Thursday, preventing citizens from entering or exiting, and forced shop owners to close their doors, limiting the movement of citizens within the village.

The villagers have also been threatened by Zionist settlers via mobile phones, where they were threatened with death and destruction, increasing the state of terror and fear among the residents.

In a related context, last year saw the extremist Ben Gvir setting up his tent at the eastern entrance of al-Mughayer, where he incited attacks on the village, demanding the expulsion of its residents and the demolition and razing of all homes and lands.

Doctors Without Borders announced that more than 60 water desalination stations in the besieged Gaza Strip have gone out of service due to damage caused by ongoing Israeli bombardment since October 2023. The organization confirmed that this bombardment is part of the occupation's policy aimed at depriving Palestinians of the necessities of life.

The organization explained that the occupation has destroyed the basic water infrastructure in Gaza, leading to a severe shortage of the amount of water available to the population. The available water has become completely insufficient, threatening the lives of thousands of Palestinians.

Doctors Without Borders pointed out that the occupation prevents the importation of essential materials for water treatment, as the organization has only received one approval for every 10 requests to import the necessary materials for water desalination since June 2024. This reflects the extent of the suffering faced by the population in obtaining potable water.

The organization also confirmed that the occupation has repeatedly damaged two out of three water pipelines leading to Gaza, resulting in a loss of 70 percent of water due to leaks. This situation exacerbates the water crisis in the sector.

Doctors Without Borders discussed the health impact of the lack of clean water, as cases of disease have increased, with medical teams conducting more than a thousand consultations weekly for patients suffering from acute watery diarrhea. The lack of water for hygiene has also led to the spread of skin diseases such as scabies.

The organization noted that the occupation imposes difficult conditions for delivering potable water, as the occupying state controls most of the water that reaches Gaza. This makes it difficult for the population to obtain the water necessary for their daily lives.

Doctors Without Borders clarified that 196 desalination stations in Gaza are managed by the government and NGOs, but more than 60 of them are out of service due to damage. The occupation also repeatedly obstructs the repair of damaged pipes and stations.

The organization reported that the occupation prevents the entry of supplies necessary for repairing the water infrastructure, leading to delays in their arrival for months. This reflects the occupation's policy of tightening restrictions on Palestinians and preventing them from obtaining their basic rights.

In a new escalation, the Israeli occupation army cut off the last power line feeding the central water desalination station in Deir al-Balah on March 9, 2025, further exacerbating the water crisis in the area.

Doctors Without Borders confirmed that it was forced to stop providing water at 137 distribution points in Gaza due to military activities and ongoing bombardment. This reflects the scale of the humanitarian disaster faced by the residents of the sector.

Reports also indicated that the Israeli government is considering reducing the amounts of water allocated to northern Gaza, which threatens further forced displacement of the population. Since the beginning of the aggression on October 7, 2023, the occupying state has committed genocide in Gaza, resulting in the martyrdom of more than 62,000 Palestinians.

Palestine has called on all countries of the world to link the level of their relations with the occupying state to the extent of the latter's commitment to international law and United Nations resolutions. This was stated in a statement by the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, which emphasized the seriousness of the incursions and invasions carried out by the occupying army and the militias of Zionist settlers in the occupied West Bank.

The ministry condemned the provocative Israeli statements against Palestinians, their land, and their properties, noting that the Israeli disregard for the international consensus rejecting settlement and the annexation of the occupied West Bank is evidence of the Israeli government's indifference to international demands and appeals.

The ministry affirmed that this situation necessitates a serious collective international stand to put an end to this recklessness and to compel the occupation to comply with international law and the decisions of international legitimacy. It stressed the importance of conditioning relations with the occupying state on its commitment to these laws.

The ministry also called on countries that have not yet recognized the State of Palestine to expedite their recognition, to protect the two-state solution and before it is too late. It pointed out that several countries, including Britain, France, and Australia, intend to recognize the State of Palestine during the upcoming United Nations General Assembly meetings in September.

It is worth noting that at least 149 countries recognize the Palestinian state declared by the Palestinian leadership in exile in 1988, out of 193 member states in the international organization. This recognition comes at a time when Palestine is suffering from an escalation of Israeli aggression, where the Israeli army and settlers in the occupied West Bank have killed more than 1,015 Palestinians.

In addition, Palestinian data indicates that around 7,000 others have been injured and more than 18,500 Palestinians have been arrested. In the besieged Gaza Strip, the Israeli aggression has resulted in a large number of martyrs and injured, necessitating urgent international action to stop these violations.

The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirms that these events require the international community to take effective steps to pressure the occupying state to stop its assaults and to adhere to international law and United Nations resolutions.

An UN official has called for urgent action to address the outbreak of famine in the besieged Gaza Strip, noting that this is the first time famine has been confirmed in the Middle East. This came during a press conference by the Director of Food Security Analysis and Nutrition at the World Food Programme.

Jan Martin Bauer explained that famine means severe food deprivation and acute malnutrition, leading to deaths from hunger. He emphasized the importance of protecting data systems that will guide the necessary humanitarian responses.

On Friday, the Global Initiative for the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification declared a state of famine in the city of Gaza, expecting it to extend to the governorates of Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis by the end of September.

The occupying state quickly attacked the report, which relied on data and facts, claiming it was based on phone testimonies, reflecting its attempts to downplay the severity of the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

The Global Initiative for the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification includes 21 prominent organizations, including the Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Food Programme, and aims to analyze food security and nutrition situations.

Since March 2, the occupying state has evaded implementing an agreement with Hamas for a ceasefire and prisoner exchange, and has closed the Gaza crossings to aid trucks piled up at the border.

Despite the accumulation of aid trucks at the entrances to the Gaza Strip, the occupying state continues to prevent their entry or controls their distribution, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.

Since October 7, 2023, the occupying state has been committing genocide in Gaza with American support, resulting in the deaths of more than 62,000 Palestinians and injuries to about 157,000 others, most of whom are children and women.

The Israeli genocide has also left hundreds of thousands displaced and caused famine that has claimed the lives of 273 people, including 112 children, necessitating urgent international action to save the situation.

The occupying state ignores international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to stop the aggression, further complicating the humanitarian conditions in Gaza.

65 Palestinians have been martyred in ongoing Israeli bombardment across various areas of the Gaza Strip since dawn today, including 6 humanitarian aid seekers. Medical sources reported that 37 martyrs fell in Gaza City alone, reflecting the scale of the increasing humanitarian suffering in the region.

In Khan Younis, a woman and her four children were martyred due to bombardment from an Israeli drone targeting tents of displaced persons in the Mawasi area. Other Palestinians were martyred in their tents in the cities of Asda and Hamad, while civilians were injured in bombardment on a water desalination station west of Khan Younis.

3 Palestinians were martyred by the occupation army's gunfire while waiting for aid in Khan Younis, while the residential city of Hamad and the vicinity of the Abad al-Rahman Mosque were subjected to intense bombardment. The director of medical relief in Gaza, Mohammed Abu Afash, confirmed that ambulance teams were unable to reach martyrs and injured individuals in the neighborhoods of Al-Sabra and Al-Zeitoun due to the severity of the bombardment.

Civil defense teams recovered 4 bodies from the rubble of homes in the neighborhoods of Al-Zeitoun and Al-Sabra, while a young man was killed in bombardment targeting a group of citizens in the Shuja'iyya area. In the Shuja'iyya neighborhood, a woman was martyred after an Israeli drone dropped a bomb on the area.

The number of victims from the bombardment of the Amr Ibn Al-As school, which is considered a shelter for displaced persons in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, has risen to 18 martyrs. The occupation army also committed a massacre against the Shahin family on Al-Jalaa Street, where 5 individuals were martyred, including 3 children.

In the Al-Sabra neighborhood, a mother and her son were killed when a drone targeted a gathering near the Al-Istijabah Mosque. Meanwhile, bombardment of the home of the Al-Amarin family resulted in casualties and injuries, and a 4-story house belonging to the Al-Ja'al family was destroyed.

Israeli drones also targeted an apartment in the Al-Ittihad Tower in the Nuseirat camp, resulting in the martyrdom of two women and injuries to 5 others. In Gaza City and its surroundings, 3 Palestinians were martyred due to airstrikes on a house in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood.

Israeli Channel 12 reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government is pressuring the army to expedite the process of taking control of Gaza City. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has approved plans to occupy the city through heavy firepower and widespread displacement of Palestinians.

The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) considered Katz's statements a clear acknowledgment of committing a crime of ethnic cleansing, pointing out that Gaza is undergoing systematic destruction and horrific massacres against civilians. The movement questioned the world's silence on genocide with an official declaration from the occupation leaders.

According to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, the toll of the Israeli aggression since October 7, 2023, has risen to 62,192 martyrs and 157,114 injured, most of whom are children and women, along with more than 9,000 missing persons. The siege and starvation have also caused the deaths of 273 individuals, including 112 children.

U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed today, Friday, that the situation in the besieged Gaza Strip "must end" as soon as possible, noting that some families of the prisoners do not oppose the occupation of Gaza. This came during an interview where he pointed out that Hamas is currently holding 20 people, but the number may be lower due to the absence of two of them.

Trump emphasized that he is working "with all his might" to "secure the release of the remaining prisoners," explaining that he is cooperating with his special envoy Steve Witkoff and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He affirmed that without his efforts, the prisoners would be in great danger.

In a related context, Israeli Channel 13 conducted an investigation into how Netanyahu has obstructed deals related to Israel's war on Gaza, indicating that Israel has missed five opportunities to reach an agreement for the return of the prisoners, raising questions about the government's credibility.

Since the outbreak of the Israeli aggression on Gaza about 22 months ago, the need for decisive American intervention to stop the ongoing aggression has increased. Analysts believe that any strong American move could change the rules of the war, especially if it comes from a politically influential figure like Trump.

At the same time, Israel witnessed widespread protests as Israeli demonstrators blocked major roads, including the Ayalon Highway that connects Tel Aviv to its suburbs, as part of popular protests to pressure the government to finalize a prisoner exchange deal and end the war.

The demonstrators set up a table in the middle of the street as a symbol of the prisoners' suffering and set it on fire. In Jerusalem, families of the prisoners protested in front of the government headquarters, asserting that the government lacks a popular mandate to continue the war.

The families of the prisoners announced a wide movement next Tuesday to pressure for the release of their loved ones, with some mothers accusing Netanyahu of deceiving them regarding a comprehensive deal.

The Hamas movement confirmed its readiness to release Israeli prisoners in exchange for ending the aggression and the withdrawal of the occupying army from Gaza, but Netanyahu has imposed new conditions that hinder negotiations.

Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli occupation has been committing genocide in Gaza, including killing, starvation, and destruction, resulting in the martyrdom of 61,499 Palestinians and the injury of 153,575, in addition to hundreds of thousands of displaced persons.

An investigation conducted by Israel's Channel 13 revealed the existence of a systematic mechanism of deception and obstruction practiced by Benjamin Netanyahu's government against the ceasefire negotiations in Gaza. The report highlights the complicity of the U.S. administration, which chose to blame Hamas despite knowing the truth.

The report documented Netanyahu and his far-right ministers, such as Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, obstructing at least five opportunities to reach an agreement that could have saved Israeli hostages and ended the war on the Gaza Strip at earlier stages.

The investigation relied on testimonies from former members of the Israeli war council, who confirmed that the political leadership intentionally lied to the public about the deals and spread misleading news about the negotiations even before they took place.

Most controversially, former U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller admitted that Washington was monitoring Netanyahu's government's attempts to obstruct the ceasefire negotiations, but chose to remain silent so that Hamas would not benefit.

Writer Hussam Shakir asserts that Netanyahu's government was interested in prolonging the war and that all talk of negotiations and conditions was merely a theatrical facade for a reality aimed at sustaining the war of starvation and extermination against the Palestinian people.

Writer Ihab Jabareen points out that Netanyahu exploited the weakness of the previous Biden administration's position and is now benefiting from the intersection of his vision with the current U.S. administration to enhance his political trajectory.

Former official Thomas Warick attempted to justify the U.S. position by focusing on short-term tactics, noting that both the Trump and Biden administrations blamed Hamas for the deaths of the hostages, not Israel.

Jabareen refutes the idea of focusing on tactics, emphasizing that discussing the beginning of the third year of the war transcends any tactical data to a strategic reality represented by the genocide of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

Jabareen confirms that this data indicates the empowerment of the Israeli occupation in Palestine, noting that the U.S. ambassador acts as if he is an Israeli ambassador in Palestine.

Despite the bleak scene, Jabareen sees possibilities for benefiting from this revelation, explaining that Netanyahu seeks to impose complete surrender agreements on anyone who opposes Israel.

In a controversial statement, U.S. President Donald Trump called for the occupation of the city of Gaza and the destruction of what remains of it, affirming his support for the entry of the occupying army into the area. This was stated during his remarks on Friday, where he indicated that this military intervention would provide security for those held in Gaza.

Trump claimed that the current situation in the Gaza Strip must come to an end, emphasizing the need for radical measures to resolve the crisis. He confirmed that he is working with the head of the occupying government, Benjamin Netanyahu, to secure the release of detainees, noting his success in returning a number of prisoners in the past.

Trump's statements come at a sensitive time, as the residents of the Gaza Strip suffer from dire humanitarian conditions due to the ongoing blockade and aggression. These statements may increase tensions in the region and provoke angry reactions from Palestinians and the international community.

Many observers believe that Trump's call for occupation reflects the current U.S. administration's policy towards the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which is often seen as biased in favor of the occupying state. These statements could exacerbate the situation in Gaza and increase the suffering of civilians.

While the international community seeks to find peaceful solutions to the conflict, Trump's statements appear to reflect a military approach that may threaten peace efforts. It is important for the reactions to these statements to be monitored by Arab countries and the international community.

Reports from an internal Israeli intelligence database have revealed that at least 83 percent of the Palestinians who were martyred in the Israeli attack on Gaza were civilians. This investigation, conducted by several media outlets, including 972+ magazine, Local Call website, and The Guardian newspaper, shows a significant discrepancy between the official figures provided by the occupying army and the documented realities.

According to the confidential data, the number of civilian martyrs far exceeds the figures announced by the occupying army, which claimed that the ratio of civilian to militant casualties was 1:1 or 2:1. However, the investigation showed that 83% of the victims were civilians, indicating that the official numbers were misleading.

By May, after 19 months of the war's onset, Israeli intelligence officials listed the names of 8,900 fighters from Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad as killed, while the total number of Palestinian martyrs reached 53,000 according to health authorities in Gaza. This means that the mentioned fighters constituted only 17% of the total deaths.

The reports indicate that the ratio of civilian to militant casualties in Gaza is extremely high compared to modern wars, reflecting a significant failure in the military operations conducted by the occupying state. The credibility of Palestinian health data has been confirmed by several parties, including the Israeli army.

Since the beginning of the war, Israeli officials have sought to deny accusations of indiscriminate killing, but the increasing numbers of Palestinian martyrs indicated otherwise. In December 2023, an Israeli army spokesperson stated that the occupation killed two civilians for every one militant, but as the number of martyrs rose to 35,000 in May 2024, the head of the occupying government admitted that the ratio was closer to 1:1.

The fluctuations in the official numbers of militants that the occupation claimed to have killed were notable, with the figures oscillating irrationally. In November 2023, a security official claimed that the occupation killed more than 10,000 militants, but this number decreased in subsequent assessments.

The investigations also revealed cases where civilians were recorded as killed militants, reflecting a culture of deceit within the occupying army. Some officers also indicated that most of the reported numbers do not reflect the actual reality.

The public discourse from Israeli leadership indicates a clear intention to harm all Palestinians in Gaza, not just Hamas fighters. This reflects a policy of genocide aimed at destroying the entire Palestinian community.

Hebrew media reported from military sources that the occupation army intends to repeat the systematic destruction policy it followed in the cities of Rafah and Khan Younis, to apply it in the city of Gaza as part of a plan to regain control of the city. This policy includes the demolition of high-rise buildings that the occupation forces consider a security threat.

According to reports, the anticipated attack on the city of Gaza will mimic aspects of previous operations, as it will include the establishment of new military roads around the city, in addition to large-scale demolition operations of buildings. The report cited what happened east of Khan Younis, where the paratrooper brigade demolished more than 2,000 buildings on the grounds of their connection to fighters or their use to access tunnels.

The urban nature of the city of Gaza presents a different challenge, as many high-rise buildings ranging from 10 to 15 stories remain standing, despite the damage they have sustained. Hebrew media claims that the occupation army sees these buildings as potential shelters for anti-tank teams, snipers, and Hamas observation points, or as hiding places for a vast network of tunnels.

Implementing this plan requires massive preparations, including huge quantities of explosives and heavy engineering equipment. Some of this equipment has been destroyed due to 22 months of war, complicating the military operation further.

The ground attack is likely to be postponed until next September, and it primarily depends on the successful evacuation of about one million civilians from the city to the south, a task described as 'complex' and reliant on the cooperation of the United Nations.

Reports indicate that the operational plan includes encircling the city of Gaza from all sides, then gradually advancing towards its western neighborhoods with high-rise buildings. Orders have already been sent to summon tens of thousands of reserve soldiers to begin service at the beginning of September.

After Hamas announced its agreement to a partial deal for the release of Israeli prisoners in the Gaza Strip, calls have intensified in the occupying state to take advantage of this opportunity to save the prisoners, as refusal is seen as a death sentence for them. Senior Israeli officer Doron Hedar, commander of the crisis and negotiations unit in the occupying army, indicated that this deal represents a real opportunity to save those who can be saved.

In his article, Hedar explained that Hamas agreed to the Witekof 2 deal, which includes the return of half of the living prisoners, followed by the return of the dead, after which intensive negotiations will begin to end the war. He emphasized the necessity for the occupying state to immediately enter the negotiation room given the critical situation of the hostages, as their lives are at risk.

Hedar also noted that the previous deal made in November 2023, which included women and children, was the result of American pressure on Qatar, leading to ongoing pressure on Hamas. However, at that time, the occupying state was not prepared to expand the deal to include adult men.

As the American elections approach in January 2025, both sides have been pressured to implement the interim deal between Netanyahu and Biden, resulting in the release of 33 prisoners, but the subsequent stages were not completed. The occupying state sought to achieve its larger goal of defeating Hamas.

Currently, the occupying state is going through a pivotal phase as it continues to eliminate the second tier of Hamas leadership, while operational pressure on the elements holding the hostages in the Gaza tunnels increases. At the same time, Hamas is trying to portray the occupation as starving the residents of Gaza, leading to an unprecedented international crisis.

Under these circumstances, the occupying state has devised a plan to expand military maneuvers and occupy the city of Gaza. International mediators, especially the American side, are seeking to end the war and alleviate international pressure on Tel Aviv, prompting them to meet with senior officials in Qatar and Egypt.

Hamas, realizing the shrinking space for its maneuvering, was forced to enter into partial negotiations, with mediators emphasizing the need to closely monitor these negotiations. In return, the margin for maneuvering for the occupying state is shrinking, which will first receive half of the prisoners.

All indications point to the mediators' intention to push for serious negotiations to end the war, as Egyptian plans include freezing Hamas's weapons and its readiness to send forces to support the alternative government in Gaza. Despite the obstacles, these negotiations remain the only way to achieve the war's objectives.

The British Foreign Secretary David Lammy described the announcement by UN experts of famine in Gaza as a moral outrage. He affirmed that the Israeli blockade is the direct cause of this humanitarian disaster that Gaza is suffering from.

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) report clarified that the city of Gaza and its surroundings are experiencing a 'completely man-made' famine. The report warned that the continuation of the blockade and the prevention of aid access will lead to a sharp increase in avoidable deaths.

The report indicated that three of the international criteria for declaring famine have been met, with more than 20% of households experiencing complete food loss, over 30% of children suffering from acute malnutrition, in addition to high daily deaths due to direct hunger.

The report warned that the cities of Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis in the central and southern Gaza Strip may witness a famine situation in the coming weeks, while the north is experiencing the worst humanitarian conditions according to estimates from UN officials.

Residents of Gaza reported days without sufficient food, as families suffer from a severe shortage of available food supplies from charitable kitchens. Riham Kriem from Gaza expressed her suffering, saying: 'My children are in poor health, we do not have enough food.'

Lammy condemned the continuation of the Israeli blockade and considered it the main reason behind this famine, calling on Israel to open the crossings immediately to ensure that aid reaches all residents.

In contrast, the Israeli government rejected the IPC report, claiming that the information is based on 'lies from Hamas and organizations with political interests.'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced a new large-scale attack on the city of Gaza, which could complicate aid access and exacerbate the crisis.

The UN and humanitarian organizations face significant obstacles in delivering aid due to Israeli administrative and bureaucratic restrictions, ongoing military operations, and the destruction of infrastructure.

The Gaza Ministry of Health indicated that deaths due to hunger and malnutrition have risen significantly, recording 133 deaths in the first 20 days of August, including 25 children under 18 years old.

The report urged all international parties to take immediate action to save civilians in Gaza, stressing that any further delay will lead to widespread human losses that could be avoided.

With American support, Israel has been committing genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, including killing, starvation, and destruction, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to stop.

The Israeli genocide has left 62,192 martyrs and 157,114 injured among the Palestinians, with hundreds of thousands displaced and famine claiming the lives of 271 people, including 112 children.

A recent research paper addresses the occupation's concerns about the economic repercussions of occupying the Gaza Strip, as this decision is considered an uncalculated step that could exacerbate economic and social crises. The paper indicates that the occupation will face significant challenges in managing its responsibilities towards two million Palestinians in the sector, which will lead to intensified international boycotts and rising living costs.

The paper highlights statements from Professor Karnit Flug and Professor Yaakov Frankel, who confirmed that the occupation is facing unprecedented existential challenges, as the degree of international isolation increases and internal division deepens. They pointed out that the occupation of the Gaza Strip is not merely a military step, but could be a turning point with dire consequences for the occupation.

Estimates suggest that the cost of reconstructing the Gaza Strip will reach $53 billion, a substantial amount that Israeli taxpayers will bear part of. Additionally, the occupation will have to bear the costs of providing basic services to the residents of Gaza, which will impose an additional burden on the Israeli economy, already suffering from the repercussions of war.

Ongoing costs include providing food, health services, and education, with the annual cost of these services estimated at ten billion shekels. Furthermore, controlling the sector will require establishing a military and civilian administration, which will increase the financial burdens on the occupation.

The paper anticipates that the international repercussions of occupying Gaza will lead to the cancellation of trade agreements and the imposition of export restrictions, resulting in rising prices and increased risks to the Israeli economy. The growing isolation will also negatively impact foreign investments and the credit rating of the occupation.

The paper also discusses the scientific and cultural boycott faced by the occupying state, where researchers encounter difficulties in collaborating with their peers abroad. These phenomena reflect increasing isolation and affect innovation and technology, potentially leading to a decline in economic growth.

The paper emphasizes the importance of conducting an in-depth strategic discussion about the economic repercussions of occupying Gaza, as economic considerations must be an integral part of political and security decisions. The absence of this discussion could lead to dire consequences for the Israeli economy and the living standards of its citizens.

The Egyptian Foreign Minister, Badr Abdel Atti, during a call with the U.S. envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, urged the current opportunity presented by Hamas's acceptance of the U.S. proposal to be seized in order to move towards ending the ongoing war in Gaza. Abdel Atti emphasized the importance of this opportunity given the difficult humanitarian conditions faced by the Palestinians.

The statement from the Egyptian Foreign Ministry indicated that both sides discussed the latest developments regarding the ceasefire in Gaza, especially after Hamas's acceptance of the U.S. proposal. The statement stressed the necessity for the occupying state to respond to the proposal and implement its elements to address the current crisis.

Abdel Atti stressed the importance of preserving the lives of Palestinian prisoners and alleviating the suffering of civilians in Gaza, as well as ensuring the flow of humanitarian aid in sufficient quantities to meet the needs of Palestinians who are subjected to a systematic policy of starvation.

He also affirmed the necessity of utilizing the proposed sixty-day ceasefire period to negotiate an end to the war and establish the foundations for a just settlement of the Palestinian issue, noting that the unjust war has continued for nearly two years.

In a related context, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry expressed its deep concern over the Israeli government's continued implementation of a military attack plan aimed at controlling cities in the Gaza Strip, which constitutes a blatant violation of international law.

Cairo expressed its strong disapproval of the Israeli escalation policies and the expansion of the occupation of Palestinian territories, whether in the West Bank or Gaza Strip, indicating that these policies reflect the Israeli bet on military solutions instead of engaging in serious negotiations.

Minister Abdel Atti also addressed the Iranian nuclear program during his call with Witkoff, pointing to Cairo's position calling for de-escalation in the Middle East and the absence of military solutions to this crisis and other regional crises.

The Israeli airstrikes on the besieged Gaza Strip continued since dawn today, resulting in the death of 30 Palestinians, including 24 dead in the city of Gaza alone. These attacks come at a time when the sector is suffering from a suffocating humanitarian crisis due to the ongoing blockade.

Medical sources in Gaza hospitals confirmed that the number of dead is continuously rising, as many injured individuals with serious wounds have been received due to the intense shelling. The health situation in the hospitals has become critical, suffering from a severe shortage of medical supplies.

These airstrikes coincide with a noticeable escalation in the Israeli aggression against the sector, as Israeli warplanes targeted residential areas and civilian facilities, leading to widespread destruction of infrastructure.

In light of this escalation, international calls to stop the Israeli aggression on Gaza continue, with many humanitarian organizations expressing their deep concern over the deteriorating humanitarian conditions in the sector.

For its part, Palestinian factions affirmed their right to defend their people, emphasizing that these assaults will not go unanswered. They called for unity to confront the occupation and limit its ongoing attacks.

The situation in Gaza continues to deteriorate, as residents suffer from a severe shortage of food and water, in addition to prolonged power outages. These conditions make it difficult for the population to live with dignity amid the ongoing aggression.

Reports indicate that extensive behind-the-scenes communications are underway for a comprehensive settlement aimed at ending the war in the besieged Gaza Strip. Hamas has shown a positive response to the mediators' proposals, suggesting the possibility of reaching an agreement that leads to a ceasefire.

Opinions are divided on how to handle the situation post-war, with the United States adopting a plan that includes the deployment of international forces, while Egypt prefers to restore the Palestinian Authority to the region. The occupying state seems inclined to support the American approach, while Egypt rejects the idea of deploying foreign troops.

As part of the negotiations, an American plan has been proposed that includes a ceasefire and a partial prisoner exchange deal, with mechanisms set to release all prisoners as soon as possible. This framework aims to transfer control from Hamas and strip the sector of its authority.

An announcement from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office indicated that Israeli policy has not changed, as it demands the release of all prisoners according to the principles set by the cabinet. Netanyahu stated that Israel is at a critical stage regarding Hamas and will not leave any hostage behind.

Later, Netanyahu announced the start of immediate negotiations for the release of all prisoners in the Gaza Strip and the end of the war, alongside the implementation of the occupying state's plans. However, the mediators' proposal includes the release of half the prisoners in exchange for a 60-day ceasefire, which contradicts the occupying state's plans.

During his visit to the Gaza Division of the occupying army, Netanyahu emphasized the necessity of controlling the city of Gaza and decisively resolving the battle with Hamas, while instructing the start of negotiations regarding the release of hostages and ending the war on terms acceptable to the occupying state.

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) issued a warning statement regarding the catastrophic food security situation in the Gaza Strip, predicting that it would announce the worst possible famine scenario. This warning comes at a time when the region is suffering from escalating conflict and displacement, significantly impacting access to food and basic goods.

Reports indicate that the food situation in Gaza has reached unprecedented levels, with residents experiencing widespread hunger and malnutrition. The organization confirmed that food consumption in most parts of the region has reached famine levels, threatening the lives of many families.

Data also showed that acute malnutrition in Gaza City has reached its peak, with over 20,000 children admitted to hospitals for treatment due to severe malnutrition. Among them, more than 3,000 children are suffering from acute malnutrition, reflecting the scale of the humanitarian disaster facing the region.

In a related context, hospitals reported a noticeable increase in child deaths under the age of five related to hunger, with at least 16 deaths recorded since mid-July. This situation highlights the urgent need for immediate humanitarian interventions to save lives.

The organization called for immediate action to end hostilities and allow for a comprehensive and unimpeded humanitarian response. It emphasized that this is the only way to stop further deaths and the catastrophic humanitarian suffering experienced by the residents of the Gaza Strip.

Concerns are growing over the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza as the blockade and aggression continue, making it difficult for residents to obtain basic necessities. This warning serves as a cry for help to the international community for immediate intervention.

Reports have been broadcast about shootings at Palestinians while distributing aid at "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" sites, where an eyewitness reported that the gunfire was not only from the occupying army but also from contractors working with American subcontractors.

The "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" responded to these accusations by stating that its contractors do not shoot at civilians and that no one has been killed by gunfire at its sites, while the occupying army confirmed that it does not intentionally shoot at civilians and is investigating reports related to the damages.

Testimonies from former American contractors indicate that the shots fired by the occupying army and the contractors were random and targeted civilians, as one of them was tasked with cleaning up human and animal remains near one of the sites.

More than 1,800 Palestinians have been martyred while trying to obtain food, including at least a thousand near "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" sites, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights office.

Palestinian and international institutions confirm that "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" sites have become death traps, with the UN rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories describing this foundation as a killing trap.

Amnesty International described the military aid system as lethal, based on accounts from residents in the Gaza Strip, and investigations revealed the use of live ammunition by American contractors against Palestinians.

171 international relief organizations demanded the immediate closure of the "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation," considering it a threat to civilians' lives and safety.

The Ministry of Interior and National Security in the Gaza Strip warned of a new system launched by the "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" to collect personal information and photos of Palestinians, indicating that the goal is to establish an intelligence security system.

The ministry urged Palestinians not to respond to any requests for personal data or photos requested by this foundation, which is overseen by the Israeli occupation.

Since the start of this mechanism on May 27, 1996 Palestinians have been martyred and 14,898 others injured, according to the government media office, as part of a "starvation engineering" policy.

The Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, warned that the hungriest children in the Gaza Strip are "condemned to die" if aid does not reach them urgently. These statements come at a time when the besieged territory is suffering from a suffocating humanitarian crisis.

In a statement, Lazzarini noted that hunger levels in Gaza, especially in the north, have reached unprecedented levels, with approximately one million people still living in Gaza City according to estimates. These figures reflect the tragic situation faced by Palestinians in the region.

Lazzarini also announced the imminent release of an assessment of the hunger situation in the area, highlighting the importance of the current situation and confirming the urgent need for humanitarian assistance. UNRWA health centers have seen a significant increase in the number of children suffering from acute malnutrition, with rates rising sixfold since last March.

Lazzarini added that the situation requires urgent measures, warning that children in Gaza are already dying of hunger, and that the situation will worsen without immediate intervention. These statements reflect the growing concern from the international community regarding the humanitarian crisis in the region.

These warnings come at a time when pressure is increasing on humanitarian organizations to provide the necessary assistance, amid the blockade imposed on the area which exacerbates the suffering of the population. The humanitarian situation in Gaza requires an urgent response from the international community.
