USrael Uber Alles: UN says Gaza running out of food


Al-Jazeera

"The UN relief and works agency has said it will run out of food within the next 48 hours as the blockade imposed on Gaza by Israel continues.

Christopher Gunness, the agency's spokesman, told Al Jazeera the people in Gaza were being put through not just a "physical sense of punishment but also a mental one".

"That's how serious it is. We feed 750,000 people in Gaza and these are some of the poorest and most disadvantaged people in the Middle East," he said on Wednesday.

"Something very unusual is happening here. This is becoming a blockade against the UN itself."........"
