More than 20 international relief agencies issued an urgent message to the United Nations and world leaders today, Wednesday, calling for immediate intervention to stop the genocide being perpetrated by Israel in the Gaza Strip.
The agencies based their message on the findings of the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry, which concluded that Israel committed four out of the five acts of genocide specified in the 1948 Convention.
The message warned that the situation in Gaza is the deadliest in the history of the region unless urgent measures are taken.
The relief agencies also warned that the continuation of the blockade and attacks will lead to the complete depletion of life in the Gaza Strip, urging governments to act to stop the violence and end the occupation.
The relief agencies confirmed that the militarization of the humanitarian aid system in Gaza has become a deadly threat, as it shoots at thousands while they attempt to access food and water.
These demands come at a time when the Israeli occupation army continues its operations against the city of Gaza, conducting extensive airstrikes and shelling in the northern and western neighborhoods, amid a military campaign involving two of its battalions.
The toll of the occupation's aggression on the Gaza Strip has risen since October 7, 2023, to 64,964 martyrs, in addition to 165,312 injuries.
The situation in Gaza is the deadliest in the history of the region unless urgent measures are taken.
