“Hordes of hungry people broke into WFP’s al-Ghafari warehouse in Deir al-Balah, central #Gaza, in search of food supplies that were pre-positioned for distribution,” #WFP said in a statement, which warned of “alarming and deteriorating conditions on the ground”.
“Humanitarian needs have spiralled out of control after 80 days of complete blockade of all food assistance and other aid into Gaza,” the statement said. “Gaza needs an immediate scale-up of food assistance. This is the only way to reassure people that they will not starve.”

embargo, block the ports, sever diplomatic ties, sever all civilian &
