Real News Video: Blockade halts food aid to Gaza. Is it a Genocide Yet?



"Michael Bailey: 70,000 Gazans have no drinking water; UN can't feed 700,000 refugees

Friday April 25th, 2008

The Gaza Strip has fallen eerily silent as day-to-day life grinds to a halt in the face of an Israeli fuel blockade that has forced the UN to halt its food shipments into the territory. Michael Bailey of Oxfam in Jerusalem tells The Real News Network that some 300,000 Gaza residents have drinking water at home for less than five hours per day, every four days, and the UN can no longer get supplies to the 700,000 refugees living in Gaza."
