The media office said that the deadly blockade of Israel constitutes a “war crime” and reveals “its deliberate use of hunger as a weapon to exterminate civilians.”

The office condemned what was called “this ongoing crime against childhood in the Gaza Strip” as well as “shameful international silence regarding the suffering of children who leave to fall into hunger, disease and slow death.”

She also said that she was carrying Israel, as well as its allies, including the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany, responsible for “this disaster”, and urged the United Nations to intervene and open the crossings in Gaza immediately.

The statement came days after the United Nations Children’s Children’s Agency (UNICEF) warned that the number of children suffering from malnutrition in the Gaza Strip was rising with a “average warning.” He said that at least 5119 children were accepted, between 6 months and 5 years, to treat severe malnutrition in May alone.

The warnings came when the Palestinians saddened 60 people who were killed in Israeli attacks on Saturday. In the Tuffah neighborhood in Gaza City, rescuers continued to search for the survivors after two Israelis, respectively, settled many residential buildings, killing at least 20 people.

Some of the nine children were among the victims.

“We were sitting safely when we received a call from a special number telling us to sit the entire block immediately-a residential area of ​​the Al-Nakhala family. As you can see, the entire bloc was almost eliminated,” said one of the residents, Mahmoud Al-Akhla, told Al Jaitera.

He said: “We still do not know why two three-storey houses have been targeted …

The bombings in Tuffah followed another air strike on the tents, which led to the displaced in Gaza City.

At least 13 people, including many children, were killed.

According to Gaza officials, Israeli forces have killed more than 550 people at GHF sites and near them, since the controversial group began its operations on May 19.

Hani Mahmoud from Al -Jazeera, who was reported by Gaza City, said that GHF is still the only source of food in the tape as Israel continues to put severe restrictions on the entry of supplies by other groups.

Mahmoud said: “Many people here are trying to stay away from the GHF centers because of the danger that it involves going to them, due to the continuous and studied shooting from the aid seekers there.” “But again, the residence is not far from an answer, because if there is no food parcels, this means that the children will go to bed hungry.”

The relief groups condemned the “military” operations of GHF, where the United Nations Secretary -General Antonio Guterres said on Friday that the US -backed operation in Gaza was “inherently safe” and “killing people”.

“It is a reflection of all global humanitarian principles on independence, neutrality and impartiality,” he told Al -Jazeera.

“As we saw, about 550 Palestinians were killed in an attempt to get food there, travel on foot, long trips, then the families worry if they would return again.”

He went on to describe the situation as another example on how “Israel enjoys fully punishment from any of the rules of war, international law.”

He added: “This must be dismantled now, and the delivery and distribution systems of appropriate aid that reserves.”
