GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Senior Hamas official Osama Hamdan has warned that more than half a million people in the Gaza Strip are facing the risk of dying from starvation, pointing out that many residents had to grind animal fodder to use it as food in the absence of flour.
Addressing a news conference on Monday, Hamdan held the Israeli occupation government and the US administration responsible for the massacres and atrocities in Gaza, calling on international organizations to declare northern Gaza a famine zone.
Hamdan urged the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the Arab League to make immediate efforts to bring aid into Gaza.
“For the 108th day, the Nazi occupation persists in its barbaric aggression and genocidal war against our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, during which it has committed the most heinous crimes and horrific massacres against defenseless civilians, mostly children and women, through continuous indiscriminate bombardment and systematic destruction of all aspects of human life across the Gaza Strip,” Hamdan said.
“There are no longer safe areas in the Gaza Strip as the occupation regime and the US administration claim, and it is no longer a secret the nature of the third stage that has been announced by this Nazi enemy in partnership with America and the West,” Hamdan underlined.
