The international community has increased pressure on Israel, demanding an easing of the blockade of the Gaza Strip and a cessation of hostilities due to the rapidly deteriorating humanitarian situation in the territory. According to the local Ministry of Health, since the beginning of the conflict, the death toll has exceeded 60 thousand.

Osama Hamdan, a representative of the Palestinian Hamas movement, said in an interview that the food shortage in the sector had reached 96%, and 180 people had already died of starvation. He compared the events to the Holocaust and accused Israel of using "Nazi methods."

Mahmoud Al-Awadiya, a columnist for Al Mayadeen TV channel, reported that Israel continues a continuous "campaign of hunger and thirst," which, according to him, the troops use as a means of pressure on the civilian population. Israel systematically impedes the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza, seeking to deprive the Palestinians of basic livelihoods, he stressed.
