News Center- Since October 7, 2023, Israel’s attacks on the Gaza Strip have killed at least 50, 983 Palestinians, according to the Gaza’s health ministry.

 For six weeks, no aid has entered Gaza due to the ongoing Israeli blockade. More than 2.1 million people are trapped, bombed, and starved, according to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA).

“In Gaza, stocks that were able to come in at scale during the ceasefire, now have practically run out,” said John Whyte, Acting Senior Deputy Director of UNRWA Operations in Gaza.

‘Gaza has been turned into a mass grave’

“We call on Israeli authorities to immediately lift the inhumane and deadly siege on Gaza, protect the lives of Palestinians, humanitarian and medical personnel, and for all parties to restore and sustain the ceasefire,” the Doctors Without Borders (French: Médecins Sans Frontières, MSF) said in a press release on Wednesday.

“Gaza has been turned into a mass grave of Palestinians and those coming to their assistance. We are witnessing in real time the destruction and forced displacement of the entire population in Gaza,” says Amande Bazerolle, MSF emergency coordinator in Gaza.  “With nowhere safe for Palestinians or those trying to help them, the humanitarian response is severely struggling under the weight of insecurity and critical supply shortages, leaving people with few, if any, options for accessing care.”

Bodies of 15 emergency responders found in a mass grave

“In the latest instance of a ruthless attack by Israeli forces on aid workers, the bodies of 15 emergency responders and the ambulances they were traveling in were found in a mass grave on 30 March in Rafah, southern Gaza,” said MSF.
