Gaza: « Life and death have become the same » – the world

Israel continues to strengthen the pressure on the gauze. On Wednesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyah said that Israeli forces establish a new security corridor between Rafa and Kan Junis in the southern part of the Gaza.

« We are isolate the gauze belt and we gradually intensify the pressure to bring back hostages back to us, » Netanyahu said.

On Thursday, Hamas rejected Israel’s proposal for a new ceasefire and unleashed the remaining 59 hostages to release a larger number of Palestinian prisoners, permanent ceasefire and Israeli pulling from the gauze belt.

Meanwhile, according to the United Nations Agency for the help of Palestinian refugees (UNRWA), the new relocation orders have led to the displacement of about 142,000 Palestinians between 18. and 23. Marta, including those living in Refi.

According to Olga Cherevko, the UN Spokesman for Humanitarian Coordination (OCHA), more than 60 percent of Gaza is now considered a « forbidden zone » due to Israeli evacuation orders.

In the attacks of the Israeli army of 24. March to this day, according to the Ministry of Health in the Gaza, which manages Hamas, was killed over a thousand Palestinians.

After a month of Israel’s humanitarian aid blockade, the UN World Program (WFP) announced that all bakers had to close this week due to lack of flour.

Going to sleep without food

Mohamed El Kurd, the father of twelve children, told the news agency Ap that his children are now going to sleep without food. « We tell them to be patient and to bring flour in the morning, » he said. « We’re lying to them too. »

However, according to the Israeli body responsible for Palestinian Cogat, more than 25,000 trucks with 450,000 tons of help entered Gaza during the ceasefire between January and March.

The statement states that this amount represents an approximately one third of the aid that entered Gaza during 15 months of war.

The war of Israel against Gaza began after Hamas, which US, EU and other countries indicate as a terrorist organization, performed a terrorist attack on Israel 7. October 2023. years. About 1,150 people were then killed and 251 people were abducted.

Hamas continues to hold 59 hostages, of which 24 are believed to be alive, after others are released in exchanges for Palestinian prisoners as part of a fire break agreement.

Since then, Israeli War in Gaza, according to the Ministry of Health under the Hamas administration, killed about fifty thousand Palestinians. The Ministry does not distinguish between civilians and fighters in the data.

Although these figures cannot be independently confirmed, international organizations such as UN consider them mainly credible.

« Losing hope » in Gaza

Meanwhile, the humanitarian situation for about 2.3 million Palestinians in the gaza band is increasingly worse, warn international humanitarian agencies this week.

The International Committee Committee stated in a statement that « restoration of hostilities and violence cause loss of hope on all parties ».

« Life no longer tastes like a fragrance, » said Ihab Suliman, a former university professor from Gaza for AP, after the eighth time had to run. « Life and death for us became one and the same. »

Nikolaj Or, a former demining was told for the AFP that unexploded explosive devices in Gaza kill two people on average, mostly children searching the ruins of destroyed buildings.

« If you raise them, they are detonated and that is the end for you and your family, but also for the rest of the building, » Or.

In the north of Gaza, where there are land struggles, many more retarded « mortars, grenades and bullets », where the air strikes were more intense than land struggles, « civilians many more meet with artillery missiles, » Or.

One of them is a 15-year ago Azama from Rafa ripped his leg. « We reviewed the remains of our house, » Azam tells Azam for AFP. « I didn’t know it was explosive, but she suddenly explodes, » he said, « serious injuries on both legs, leading to the amputation of one of them. »

However, due to the Israeli blockade of humanitarian aid and the lack of medical materials in hospitals across Gaza, dentures for its legs are not available.

Emigration of the gauze

« There is no explicit statement (from Israel), which says that humanitarian aids are deliberately denied, but it is an assumption that is imposed, » says DW Natthan Brown, a professor of political science and international relations at George Washington University.

« But of course, if you bomb the population inside the gauze to move from one place to another, then you stop humanitarian aid, then it is not very voluntary what Israel calls the ‘voluntary departure’ from Gaza », adds this professor.

For the first time, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu on Sunday, on Sunday X, explicitly wrote: « We will take care of the general security in the gauze belt and enable the realization of the tramp plan for voluntary migration. »

In February, the president of the United States Donald Tramp said that he would « take control of Gaza » and turn it in the « Riviera Middle East », calling Arab neighbors, primarily Egypt and Jordan, to receive the Palestinian population.

This idea was rejected around the world, and the UN warned that it would be classified as ethnic cleansing.

« We now very explicitly see the Israeli political structures, and even from military plans, to want to hit the gauze depopulation, » he told DW AmŽad Iraqi from the international crisis group.

Iraqi concludes that « essentially is the collective punishment of the Palestinian population in Gaza, which we also see on the west coast. »
