UN report: Gaza strips fight for survival Amid of humanitarian crisis

In the middle of the tense geopolitical situation, the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip has developed into a worrying topic. According to the UN spokesman Stéphane Dujarric, the condition is to be assessed as "more than catastrophic". The bloody clashes in the Israel Palestine conflict further tighten the situation, and it becomes clear that humanitarian aid is not sufficient to meet the acute needs of the population.

The decline in the daily meals in the Gaza Strip is particularly alarming. In August, over a million Palestinians received no humanitarian food rations, which led to a decline in the daily cooked meals by 35 percent to only 450,000. Among other things, the UN attributes this drastic decline to the repeated evacuation commands of the Israeli army, which forced many kitchens to close or relocate their stands.

difficult reporting on the crisis

The UN also draws attention to the difficulties that journalists have in reporting on the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip. Even after eleven months of war, it is still prohibited by international media representatives to enter the area. This situation makes it almost impossible to get a complete picture of the effects of the conflict.

message from Baerbock in the region

In the middle of these worrying developments, the German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock expressed her concern about the outbreak of violence in West Bank. She emphasized that, as a occupying power in accordance with the Geneva Convention, Israel had the obligation to ensure security and to protect the population from attacks. Baerbock pointed out that fighting terrorism should not be done by destructive measures such as the destruction of infrastructures or blocking access to hospitals.

During her two-day Middle East trip, which she initially led to Saudi Arabia and Jordan, Baerbock plans a meeting with the Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority, Mohammed Mustafa, in Ramallah. It sees the authority a potentially important role in the post -war order in the Gaza Strip. Her demand that Israel should not close itself against negotiations on a two -state solution is particularly noticeable. This idea aims to establish two independent states, Israel and a Palestinian state.

The statements of Baerbock that the questioning point of the two -state solution by members of the Israeli government is not only dangerous, but can also endanger Israel's long -term security, illustrate the seriousness of the situation and urgency of negotiations. The way to solve the conflict remains a challenging and complex matter, the coping of which is still crucial.
