Josep Borrell, the head of the foreign policy department of the European Union (EU), an alliance of European countries, has strongly criticized Israel for the famine in the Palestinian Gaza Strip. He said Israel is using hunger as a weapon in the Gaza war. This is completely unacceptable. Israel is fully responsible for this situation. News from Anadolu Agency.

The 2-day conference of the European Humanitarian Forum, one of the organs of the EU, has started from Monday in Brussels, the capital of Belgium. Speaking at the conference’s opening ceremony, Josep Borrell said Gaza is no longer on the brink of famine, but beyond that level, which has brought untold suffering to thousands of people in the Valley.

The head of the EU foreign policy department said that because of the war, Gaza will soon become a region where no rule of law exists and that Palestine as a whole is becoming a failed state, a state that is failing before it is born.

Incidentally, Israel has continued to attack Gaza since October 7. 1,31,000 Palestinians including women and children were killed.

A third of the more than two million Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip are directly dependent on aid from the United Nations and other donor countries and organizations. Israeli forces have been blocking aid from entering the Gaza Strip since the start of the operation in Gaza.

As a result, the people of Gaza are forced to eat animal feed and tree leaves due to lack of food. Death has already started there due to lack of food. There is a famine.
