New York - Saba:
The UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, Alice Gill Edwards, considered the starvation of civilians in Gaza a deadly, inhumane, and degrading act that must end.
Edwards explained that depriving people in Gaza of food, water, and dignity is a grave violation and must stop, stressing that aid must be delivered to Gaza urgently, safely, unconditionally, and without hindrance, according to the Palestinian Safa News Agency.
The Gaza Strip is experiencing one of the worst humanitarian crises in its history, with a severe famine intertwined with a genocidal crime waged by the Zionist enemy forces since October 7, 2023.
Despite international, UN, and Palestinian warnings of the repercussions of famine in Gaza, the Zionist forces have continued to completely close the Strip's crossings to humanitarian, relief, and medical aid since March 2, escalating the starvation policy they have been perpetrating since the start of the war.
With the complete closure of crossings and the prevention of food and medicine from entering, famine has spread throughout the Strip, and symptoms of severe malnutrition have appeared among children and patients.
