Gaza on the verge of humanitarian disaster: a cry of alarm to the international community
The situation in Gaza is becoming increasingly worrying as the conflict between Israel and Hamas continues. Thousands of Palestinians have been forced to flee their homes and take refuge in makeshift shelters, as Israeli airstrikes continue to devastate the region.
According to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, the number of Palestinian casualties exceeds 25,000 people, with more than 60,000 injured. These terrifying figures demonstrate the extent of the violence and suffering suffered by the civilian population.
The humanitarian situation has become catastrophic, with shortages of drinking water, medicine and food. One in four people in Gaza face starvation due to continued fighting and Israel’s restrictions on humanitarian aid, according to United Nations officials.
Morocco, represented by Mohamed Ait Ouali, called on the international community to exert increased pressure to achieve an immediate and lasting ceasefire. He stressed the urgency of opening channels for international aid to Gaza in order to alleviate the suffering of the residents.
It is crucial that the United Nations Security Council takes urgent action to end this humanitarian tragedy. The division among Council members should not be an obstacle to the diplomatic and political action needed to resolve this crisis.
Alongside the situation in Gaza, the conflict has heightened tensions in the region, with Iranian-backed groups attacking Israeli and US targets. The situation risks degenerating further if measures are not taken quickly to end the hostilities.
It is essential that the international community takes responsibility and intervenes to protect civilians and end the suffering in Gaza. Human rights must be respected and humanitarian needs immediately met.
Time is running out and every day that passes without action undermines the lives and well-being of Palestinians in Gaza. It is time to end this humanitarian crisis and find a lasting political solution that guarantees peace and security for all.
It is high time for the international community to mobilize and act to end this unbearable humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The lives and well-being of thousands of Palestinians are at stake, and it is our duty to provide them with our aid and support. Peace can only be achieved through dialogue and mutual understanding, and it is essential that all stakeholders engage in a political process to achieve a lasting solution. Beyond declarations and condemnations, it is time to take concrete action to put an end to this humanitarian tragedy in Gaza.
