War between Israel and Hamas: famine threatens Gaza
War between Israel and Hamas: famine threatens Gaza – (FRANCEINFO)
In Gaza, the Israeli army is stepping up its operations, a war which will be “long and intense” according to the Hebrew government. As a result, a famine that could affect hundreds of thousands of people.
A crowd movement in Rafah: a humanitarian convoy has just been attacked by residents. They grab food, Hamas men shoot to disperse the people. A 17-year-old boy was killed. Famine threatens Gaza. 93% of the population is cruelly lacking food, and some are ready to do anything to get it, even if it means scrambling to fill their bowls.
Prices have tripled
In a United Nations center, flour, the basic element of food, is distributed. But some families have been coming for several days to obtain some, in vain. On the market, no more imported products, only a few vegetables harvested locally, and prices have tripled. “She needs diapers, but we don’t have any. She hasn’t eaten for 24 hours, she’s asking for food, I’m ashamed, what do you want me to say?”deplores a desperate mother, her young daughter in her arms.
