Gaza is dying before the eyes of the international community. The international conspiracy of silence and the policy of blaming the victim continue unabated. Thousands of Israeli soldiers are surrounding Gaza in a hermetic manner, shooting and killing any Palestinian trying to escape. The Rafah Crossing, the only exit to the external world, has been closed for more than two years. As if that is not enough, more than seventy percent of the Gaza Strip is blacked out after Israel blocked deliveries fuel for Gaza’s power plant for the fifth consecutive day.
Israel has completely sealed its borders with Gaza since 4 November, blocking deliveries of food, fuel, cooking gas, and medicine. UNRWA has been forced to suspend its food program serving 750,000 people. The main generator at the European Hospital in Khan Younis has already shut down. The backup generator of Gaza's largest hospital. Al-Shifa, has been stopped. Moreover, water cannot be pumped to high rise buildings. The Ministry of Health has announced that it lacks over 300 types of necessary medication. And to make life worse for Gazans, Israeli border police prevented 15 trucks loaded with medication from entering the starving Strip. So far, 258 terminally ill people have died as a direct result of the imposed deadly siege. More than 400 patients suffering from cancer and heart diseases are awaiting treatment in Israeli, Egyptian and West Bank hospitals
Gazans have repeatedly reiterated their view that the international conspiracy of silence towards the genocidal war taking place against them indicates complicity in these war crimes.
