Amjad Al-Shawa, Director of the Palestinian Non-Governmental Organizations Network, told CNN that the depletion of flour and other production materials has led to the closure of essential bakeries that produce bread as part of humanitarian aid.

“Most of our people have come to rely on this aid. Now, they are at risk of hunger and famine,” Al-Shawa added.

It shames me to see how little we in Europe care about their plight.

The US are actively funding it. Israel has never respected the US, they almost false flagged US targets in Egypt in the Lavon Affair, Israel bombed the USS Liberty killing US citizens to make a point. They stole US Uranium to start their nuclear program. They had the daughter of Mossad agent Robert Maxwell - Ghislain Maxwell and her friend Jeffery Epstein trafficking US children for sex and Israeli compromat... And the US praised them through all of it - simply because US aid to the Israeli military aid gets cycled back to the US military industrial complex [$17.9 billion in the past year].

It's insane how one sided and completely cucked the US has been in its relationship to Israel. Absolutely an insane, one sided and toxic relationship which is now led to the world sitting back and watching a genocide because the US military super power is choosing to stand by and watch passively.

Everyone's looking at the US like "You guys are together right?" - you've always blindly supported them, so like, we just don't want to tick you off or anything.
