According to Hadash, “Israeli occupation in Gaza continues to kill and gravely injure hundreds of Palestinians each week, as they desperately seek the little shelter and food available, famine is increasing, and Israel is inflicting on Palestinians conditions of life increasingly incompatible with their continued existence in Gaza.”

“The unlawful limitations on the entry of food to Gaza and other items essential for the survival of the civilian population, the poor modes of operation at militarized and privatized distribution sites where people, mainly young men and boys, continue to be shot and killed are planned by the far-right government within a context of largely destroyed law enforcement and judicial systems, a fascist offensive in Israel, and the reinforcement of occupation in the West Bank”. Regarding “reported plans by Israeli authorities to concentrate much of the population in a so-called ‘humanitarian city’ – a concentration camp in destroyed Rafah,” Hadash called on to “refrain from taking any steps aimed the forcible transfer of the Palestinian population within Gaza or its deportation outside of the Strip.” A demonstration against war will be held at Habima Square in Tel-Aviv, next Thursday, July 24, by hostages’ relatives and mothers of soldiers. On Friday, July 25, another protest against war, starvation and genocide in Gaza will be held in Sakhnin sponsored by Partnership for Peace and Hadash.
