Israel blocks entry of 83% of Gaza food aid: UN

Israel has blocked the entry of 83 per cent of food aid to the Gaza Strip, nearly a year after the beginning of the genocidal war against the Palestinians in the besieged Strip, according to a press release issued by 16 UN humanitarian relief organisations, the Palestinian Information Centre reported.

It pointed out that about 50,000 children aged between 6 and 59 months urgently need treatment for malnutrition by the end of the year.
The signatory organisations, such as Save the Children, Oxfam and the Danish Refugee Council, stressed that providing aid is the only available option under the current circumstances, due to the inability to manage the humanitarian situation.
They added that coordination for providing aid suffers from significant delays, as only 37 out of 94 humanitarian missions were implemented in northern Gaza between 1-15 September, and 50 per cent of the 243 missions in southern Gaza.
The crime of genocide committed by Israeli occupation forces in the Gaza Strip continues for the 348th consecutive day, by committing daily massacres and inhumane crimes against Palestinian civilians.
