A senior UN official warned against the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) Israel’s plan to seize Gaza City An “another catastrophe” in the Gaza Strip risked long-term consequences, as it was reported that five other people in Gaza died due to hunger-where they reached 217, including 100 children.
The Secretary -General of the United Nations in Europe, Central Asia and the Americas Miroslav Genka said on Sunday a meeting at the end of the weekend at the end of the emergency that if it is implemented, the plan may lead to the displacement of all civilians from Gaza City by October 7, 2025, which affects about 800,000 people, and many of them are already displaced.
“This is likely to lead to another catastrophe in Gaza, hesitating all over the region and caused more forced displacement, killing and destruction, which increases the inappropriate suffering of the population.”
The United Nations Ambassador, the Palestinian Rayd Mansour, told Untc that Israel was aiming to “destroy the Palestinian people through forced transport and massacres to facilitate its annexation of our lands.”
He said: “What will force Israel to change the path is our ability to transform the justified condemnation into fair acts … History will judge all of us.”
Foreign powers, including some Israeli allies, have it Criticize the Israel plan. The United Kingdom, a close ally of Israel, which prompted an emergency meeting in the crisis, warned that the Israeli plan may risk the struggle.
“It will only deepen the suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. This is not a way to solve. It is a path to more bloodshed,” said the British Ambassador to James Carioca.
Germany, another strong ally of Israel, said that it could not support Israel with an activity to expand military operations in Gaza and remove the Palestinians.
“Where is these people supposed to go?” Counselor Friedrich Mirz requested an interview with the public broadcaster ARD. “We cannot do that, and we will not do that, and I will not do that.”
Jay Darmadikari, the permanent deputy of France, Jay Darmadikari, condemned the “strongest conditions”, the plan, which he said would get “dramatic human consequences” for civilians “who already live in terrifying conditions.
Darmadikari said: “The pictures of children who die of hunger or civilians who are targeted while trying to find food is unbearable,” said Darmadikari.
The United Kingdom, Denmark, France, Greece and Slovenia have issued a joint statement asking Israel “urgently reflected this decision and not implementing” the plan, saying it violates international law.
In a separate statement, foreign ministers in Spain, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Norway, Portugal and Slovenia warned that Israel, which will convert to Gaza City, will be “a major obstacle to the implementation of a two -state solution, which is the only path towards a comprehensive, fair and lasting peace.”
Israel to “end the job” in Gaza
Despite the reactionary international reaction and rumors of the opposition from the Israeli military, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remained defying the plan to seize the largest urban center in Gaza, which was approved by the Israeli security cabinet on Friday.
“The schedule we put in this procedure somewhat quickly,” Netanyahu said at a press conference in Jerusalem on Sunday. “I do not want to talk about accurate time schedules, but we are talking in terms of somewhat short schedule because we want to end the war.”
He said that Israel “has no choice but to end the mission and complete the defeat of Hamas,” given that the group refuses to put its arms. Hamas said it would not disarm unless an independent Palestinian state was established.
Netanyahu said that the army had obtained the green light “to dismantle” what he described as two Hamas strongholds: Gaza City in the north and Mawasi to the south.
“This is the best way to end the war and the best way to end it quickly,” he said. “We will do this by enabling the civilian population first to leave the combat areas safely to the safe safe areas.”
While the Prime Minister stressed that these “safe areas” will obtain “food, water and medical care”, guards in Israel, controversial and US -backed by the United States Gaza Humanitarian Corporation (GHF)He was created with aid to the Palestinian population who are starving I opened the fire routinely On the aid students, dozens were killed simultaneously.
When asked about the increasing criticism targeting the Cabinet’s decision, Netanyahu said that the country is ready to fight alone. “We will win the war, with or without supporting others,” he said.
Hamas issued a statement responding to Netanyahu’s claim that Israel does not intend to occupy Gaza, but it is “liberated” from the Palestinian group.
The group said that the use of the term “liberation” was an attempt to discredit the truth of the occupation “will not cover the crime of genocide, killing and systematic destruction for more than 22 months.”
Hamas added that it was a “desperate attempt to rely” on Israel after it killed more than 61400 Palestinians, including more than 18,000 children.
The deputy ambassador of Israel at the United Nations, Jonathan Miller, fired fire in Hamas at the UNSC session, saying that the group “exploits” the prisoners and population in Gaza “to maintain its position, benefit from attempts to pressure Israel and from some countries’ willingness to recognize the Palestinian state.”
The United States, a permanent cassation (UNTC) (UNTC), has so far to its strong ally from any practical measures for the United Nations.
Speaking to Fox News, US Vice President said that Washington did not support Israel’s decision to seize Gaza City and the entire Gaza tape in general. “Obviously, there are a lot of negative aspects and breaks,” said JD Vance.
An unacceptable disaster
The director of the Coordination Department at the United Nations Office for Humanitarian Coordination (OCHA) said that the “unacceptable catastrophe” that is revealed in Gaza should end when the United Nations Security Council addressed via Videolink on Sunday.
Ramish Rajasingham expressed concern about “the lengthy conflict, atrocities reports and more human losses that are likely to be revealed after the government of Israel’s decision to expand military operations in Gaza.”
Israel prevented all aid from entering Gaza for several months and prevented UN workers from reaching help and distribution to save life. “The United Nations has a plan and regimes to respond. We have said this before, and we will say this again and again: Let’s work,” said Rajasingham.
The Government Information Office in Gaza said that only 1,210 auxiliary trucks entered Gaza over the past 14 days. The officials said this represents only 14 percent of the minimum actual needs in the region of 8,400 trucks.
Netanyahu admitted the existence of “deprivation” issues in Gaza, but it denied that Israel had a “policy of hunger.” Human Rights Watch has described, among other international organizations, again and repeatedly using hunger for civilians as the weapon of war. “The crime of war”.
Ahmed Al -Hadawi, the director of rescue of international children in the Middle East, North Africa and Eastern Europe, told Al -Jazeera that his team on the ground was witnessing a “significant increase” in the number of malnutrition cases, with effects that could “extend generations”.
“This is not a single event. This is not the absence of two or three meals. This is the accumulation of months (deprivation),” he said. “We can help alleviate the suffering of children in Gaza, but we cannot do this if the government of Israel continues to impose all its borders.”
