Organized and genocide famine in Gaza: the Palestinian ambassador challenges the world

ByMuhammad

Invited on TV5 Monde, Palestine’s ambassador to France, Hala Abu Hassira, drew up an ice table in the humanitarian situation in Gaza. “This is the case throughout the Gaza Strip: a hungry civilian population, forced to risk their life for a bag of flour. We saw the images of these distribution points. People know that a sniper or an Israeli soldier can kill them. But despite this, they take the risk. Because today, it is no longer a question of living, it is a question of surviving. “It evokes a total crisis, far beyond hunger:” It is the survival of an entire population that is at stake. There is no longer any medical care, hospitals are stopped, water is no longer accessible. »»

While international organizations are kept away, the ambassador denounces an Israeli will to prevent any help: “No NGO can enter. Neither did journalists. Even the rescuers are targeted. And the figures are clear: “35 out of 36 hospitals no longer work. The desalination system is destroyed. Any source of life is destroyed. If it is not a genocide, then you have to invent a new word. »»

She insists on the importance of the words: “Why insist on the qualification of what is happening in Gaza?” Because named this crime is the first step to act and try to prevent it. Faced with this reality, she calls on the permanent members of the Security Council to assume their responsibility. “How could we have managed to look, live, the extermination of a people, without even succeeding in bringing water, fuel oil or drugs?” »»
