ALBAWABA - Israeli protesters are gathering at the Nitzana Border Crossing on the Egyptian border, aiming to obstruct aid delivery to Gaza, which is facing severe famine due to Israeli actions.
Since October 7, 2023, Gaza has been under constant attack, displacing 1.9 million Palestinians and hindering humanitarian aid efforts.
Amidst this crisis, Israelis are taking to the streets to prevent aid trucks from entering Gaza, where approximately 2.3 million people are struggling to survive.
Despite international warnings of famine, Israelis continue to block aid shipments, leaving Gaza residents in dire need of assistance.
The UN has classified 378,000 Gazans as "catastrophic" and 939,000 as facing "emergency" hunger levels, underscoring the urgent need for aid.
As Israelis protest at the border, Gaza's dire situation persists, with families resorting to grinding animal feed due to food shortages.
The blockade imposed by Israel exacerbates Gaza's humanitarian crisis, with Palestinians facing starvation amidst the ongoing conflict.
Al-Aqsa Flood operation against Israel
Hamas military group announced on Oct. 7 a military operation called "Al-Aqsa Flood" against Israel which is the biggest offensive in decades.
Palestinian fighters “infiltrated” Israel from the Gaza Strip and captured military bases and took hostages as photos and videos went viral online showing Hamas fighters on vehicles inside Israel and others paragliding into occupation territory.
In response, Israeli armed forces announced targeting Hamas positions inside the Gaza Strip. Thousands were killed, and dozens of thousands of others were injured in the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip.
The latest statistics by the Ministry of Health in Gaza revealed that the death toll from Israeli brutal pounding on the Gaza Strip since October 7 has soared to 27,365 people, with more than 66,630 injuries.
Since then, approximately 85% of Gazans have been displaced, all of whom are suffering from severe food insecurity, and the healthcare system has collapsed. Hundreds of thousands of people lack shelter, and aid trucks are entering the area at a lower rate than before the conflict began.
