As Israel interrupts all the humanitarian aid of Gaza, the help groups say they are flushed

The blockade that Israel set up on all humanitarian good entry into gauze in the middle of the establishment with the American and Israeli language group Hamas about how to keep Ceasefire in Gaza He sent Humanitarian groups to Overdrive. Organizations say they are trying to figure out how to distribute the necessities for the most endangered by approximately 2 million people, and there is a fear that the situation will only worsen.

Officials in the Central Gazan city of Deir Al-Balah said on Wednesday – three days in Israeli freezing On food, fuel, drugs and other inventories that are in the Palestinian territory that are controlled by Hamas – that Israel also cut off electricity to two plants desalinacies that deliver about 70% of fresh water surface.

The freezing of assistance jeopardized the difficult advancement of humanitarian workers say that in the first phase they are at the first phase that they caught up in January and Hamas to reject hunger in Gaza. That first phase ended 1. March, and it is unclear what follows like Israel pushes to extend the phase and one, and Hamas requires the transition of two other phases.

“Israel’s decision, for blocking more than two million Palestinians in Gaza begins, is a reckless act of collective penalty, explicitly prohibited under international humanitarian law,” said the beneficiary service in the UK in the statement. “Humanitarian aid is not a negotiating chip for the application of entertainment pressure, but the fundamental law of civilians experiencing urgent needs in challenging and dangerous circumstances.”

Israel says help blocking aimed at pressing Hamas to accept a Proposal for expansion of the first phase From the truce, which writes was made by the Adut Administration. According to the proposal, Israel demanded that Hamas had taken more than half of the remaining 59 hostages in Gaza immediately, which would be a significant change in concepts in the beginning agreed contract, Qatar and Egypt.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was willing to increase pressure on Hamas, and he would not turn off the relocation of electricity into the entire gauze as part of the pressure campaign.

The help group says the break will have a “catastrophic result”

After more than 16 months of war, the Gasina population depends entirely on translated foods and other help. Most of the inhabitants are displaced from their homes, and the shelter is much needed. Fuel is needed to maintain hospitals, water pumps, bakers and telecommunications – as well as trucks by delivering assistance – looking forward.

70% is estimated The buildings in Gaza were destroyed Or damaged during the war, and there are no significant stocks of tents or other temporary shelters in the enclave to rely on the Palestinians during the Help freeze, according to Shaina low communication advisor for the Norwegian refuge counselor. Help that entered during the first phase of the truce was “nowhere close enough to deal with all the needs,” she said.

We note that six newborns in Gaza died of hypothermia during the first phase of truce, as low, would not have a newborn from exposure due to lack of shelter and heat medical treatment for treatment. ”

“We try to think of, what do we have? What would be the best use of our offer?” He said Jonathan Crickx, the head of communication for UNICEF. “We never sat in stock, so it is not as if the remaining is a huge amount for distribution.”

Crickx predicted “disastrous result” if the help freezing continues.

During the first phase of the truce, the humanitarian agencies rushed in stock and quickly increased their possibilities. Help workers have set up several kitchen for food, health and water distribution water homes. With multiple fuels coming to the power pumps, they could double the amount of water extracted from the well, cited by the UN Humanitarian Coordination Agency or OCHA.

UN NGOs and associated non-governmental organizations brought about 100,000 tents because hundreds of thousands of Palestinians tried to return to their homes to find them destroyed or too damaged to live. But progress relied on the flow of assistance continuing.

The International Migration Organization has 22,500 tents seated in Jordan after offered by trucks returned their undelivered burden on Israel, Karl Baker, said the regional coordinator for the agency crisis.

The International Rescue Committee has 14,771 kilograms of drugs and medical farms that are waiting for Gaza, whose delivery is now “very uncertain,” said Bob Kitchen, Vice President of Extraordinary and Humanitarian Action Departments.

“It’s imperative to help access now immediately continued. With humanitarian needs, it takes a sky high, no more access to help, no less,” said smaller, “Minor said.

Medical assistance for the Palestinian organization said that there are trucks stuck on the border carrying drugs, mattresses and assistive devices for people with disabilities. The organization has some medicine and materials in Gaza, the Map spokesperson Tess Pope said, but “we have no stocks that we can use during long closing”.

The UN Humanitarian Office told Tuesday that the prices of vegetables and flour were shot in Gaza after Israel closed the border crossings.

Said Mohamed Al-Dairi walked through the hectic market in Gaza City, immediately after said. The prices that have just begun descending during the switch jumped back up, because the sellers left the prices of their spaces.

“Massage traders, traders are not merciful to us,” he said. “In the morning, the price of sugar was five Shekel. Ask him now, the price became 10 of Shekel.”

In the central Gaza city of Deir Al-Balah, 2.2 kilograms of chicken that sold for 21 Šekelov – about $ 5.76 – is now 50 shekels, or about $ 14. The cooking gas increased from 90 shekel – $ 24.70 – for 26 kilograms to equivalent of 406.24 dollars.

After 7. October 2023, Hamas terrorist attack on Israel who started war, Israel cut off all the help of Gaza for two weeks. That move was central in the southern Africa case accusing Israel genocide in Gaza At the International Court of Justice. This happened as Israel launched the most beautiful phase of his campaign for airbomb bombing, one of the most up in modern history.

With the fate of the switches deeply uncertain and help frozen again, Palestinians are the color of repetition of that period.

“We are afraid that Netanyahu or Trump will launch a war more serious than the previous war,” said Abeer Obeid, the Palestinian woman from North Gaza.

“It’s crossing the means to which people get the basic needs of life, why they close them,” she asked. “To expand the truce must find any other solution.”
