It also points out a six -fold increase in the number of malnourished children in Gaza since March this year.
According to the UN head of Gaza, the famine in Gaza is Philippe Lazarini’s intentional Palestinian refugees (UNRWA). Lazzarini also pointed out a six -fold increase in the number of children suffering from malnutrition in Gaza since March this year. TASR reports this according to Sky News report.
UNRWA chief said the famine is used in the Gaza Strip as a “tool of war”. He also expressed concerns about the situation of children suffering from malnutrition, which he believes will die if they do not immediately take emergency measures during the Israeli operation in Gaza.
Emergency measures are needed
“This population is extremely welast and will be confronted with a new extensive military operation,” Lazzarini said. According to him, many people will not have the power to undergo further displacement. “Many of them will not survive. It is artificially induced, intentional famine,” he added.
The Israeli army began an invasion of Gaza on Wednesday. The Israeli security cabinet approved the takeover of this city in early August by the Israeli army. The international community, including many allies, has called on Israel to review this intention.
Humanitarian concerns are growing
On Thursday, the UN Office for Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (Ocha) also commented on the Israeli operation on Thursday, according to which this operation will have a “terrible impact on people”.
In his statement, Ochas said that “forcing hundreds of thousands of people to move south is a recipe for another disaster and could be a violent resettlement”.
“We remind all parties of the conflict of their obligations on the basis of international law to protect civilians, including humanitarian workers and those who cannot or do not want to move, and to protect humanitarian facilities and other civil infrastructure,” says Ocha.
This office also noted that all displaced persons must be able to return if they wish. Ochasa reiterated its call for a permanent ceasefire and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages that the kidnappers must treat in the meantime.
