The Zionist enemy army continues to close the border crossings today, Sunday, and prevent the wounded and sick from traveling for treatment or bringing in any humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip for the 83rd consecutive day, which resulted in a humanitarian and health disaster and a real famine, especially in the northern part of the Strip.

The enemy has been closing the crossings since it invaded the city of Rafah in the southern part of the Strip and took control of Rafah and Kerem Abu Salem land crossings, despite warnings from humanitarian and relief organizations and international demands to reopen the crossings to avoid famine due to the interruption of aid, and to save the lives of thousands of patients and wounded.

The World Food Program warned that two million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, which is being subjected to a devastating Israeli war, are suffering from food insecurity, expressing its concern about the reduction in the volume of aid operations to Gaza.

The Ministry of Health said that about 20,000 wounded and sick people in Gaza currently need to travel abroad for treatment, stressing that none of them have been able to leave the Strip since the Israeli forces occupied the crossings, which exposes the lives of thousands of them to complications and death.

For its part, the United Nations Children’s Fund “UNICEF” warned of the catastrophic impact and dire situation facing the children of Gaza due to the closure of the crossings through which aid passes, and the intensive Israeli military operations in the Strip.

Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli enemy has been launching a barbaric aggression on the Gaza Strip, leaving tens of thousands of martyrs, wounded and missing, most of them children and women.
