Our position regarding the end of Israeli occupation is clear

Stephen Dujarric, the spokesman of the United Nations, said on Wednesday local time in response to a question about the Israeli occupation: “Our position has been for years regarding the need to end the Israeli occupation of the territories Palestine has been fixed and clear”.

Dujarric stated: Great challenges, including movement restrictions, have prevented humanitarian actions in Gaza.

The United Nations World Food Program announced that it has stopped providing food aid to the northern Gaza Strip until conditions for safe food distribution are established.

According to the United Nations World Food Program, the decision was taken after a World Food Program convoy heading north from Gaza City was “surrounded by a crowd of hungry people near the Gaza Wadi checkpoint” on Sunday. . When the same convoy tried to resume its journey north on Monday, it was met with “total chaos and violence due to the breakdown of civil order”.

The UN World Food Program added: “Several trucks were looted between Khan Yunis and Deir ul-Balah and a truck driver was beaten. The remaining flour was distributed in trucks in Gaza City amid high tension and explosive anger, it said in a statement on Tuesday. The decision to stop food deliveries to the northern Gaza Strip has been difficult and means that the situation in the area will worsen and more people are at risk of dying from starvation.

According to the analysis of the Global Nutrition Cluster, which is active in the field of humanitarian aid led by the United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF), 15.6 percent of children under the age of two in northern Gaza are acutely malnourished. The Israeli army almost completely cut off aid to northern Gaza for weeks.

On October 15, 1402, on October 7, 2023, the Palestinian resistance groups launched a surprise operation called “Al-Aqsa Storm” from Gaza (southern Palestine) against the positions of the Israeli regime. On November 24, 2023, a four-day temporary ceasefire was established between Israel and Hamas, or a pause for the exchange of prisoners between Hamas and Israel.

This pause in the war continued for 7 days and finally on the morning of Friday, December 10, 2023, the temporary ceasefire ended and the Israeli regime resumed attacks on Gaza. In order to retaliate for the surprise attacks of the “Al-Aqsa storm” and to compensate for its failure and stop the resistance operations, this regime has closed all the crossings of the Gaza Strip and is bombarding this area.

The Ministry of Health of Gaza announced that the number of martyrs in Gaza since the start of the Israeli war in Gaza on October 7 (15 Mehr) has reached 28 thousand 858 people and the number of wounded has reached 68 thousand 677 people.
