"During the past year, as starvation started to appear in #Gaza, #Israel has clashed with the United Nations and aid agencies over the very nature and significance of data on humanitarian catastrophe. [...] [W]ith painstaking caution a series of reports by international and US humanitarian analysts have explained that there is indeed #StarvationInGaza, despite Israel’s insistence to the contrary: the blindfolds are off." - #AlexDeWaal

"Topics will range from #ICJ / #ICC, Starvation/Epidemic, targeting health infrastructure, journalists, and aid workers, to the seeming turning point in both regional developments and the ongoing Genocide. Are we at the cusp of anything?"

“This is fundamentally a political crisis,” says #AlexDeWaal, the author of Mass Starvation: The History and Future of Famine, who explains that even with a #ceasefire and #HumanitarianAid, “a crisis like this cannot be stopped overnight,” and that “This will be a calamity that will be felt for generations.”

Democracy Now! · As Israel Blocks More U.N. Aid, Gaza Is on the Brink of “Most Intense Famine” Since WW2By Democracy Now!

"Epidemiologists in London and Baltimore have generated projections for the likely death toll in #Gaza from all causes over the months to August. If epidemics are included, their 'status quo' scenario projects a range of 48,210 to 193,180 deaths, while under the 'with escalation' scenario those figures range even higher."

The Guardian · We are about to witness in Gaza the most intense famine since the second world warBy Alex de Waal

"The United States’ #airdrops of aid into Gaza are a textbook case of cognitive dissonance on the part of the US administration – dropping food while continuing to send #Israel bombs with which to pulverise #Gaza. And the gulf between what’s happening on the ground and the #MainstreamMedia’s reportage continues to widen."

"On 9 October, the minister of defence, Yoav Gallant, said: ‘I have ordered a complete siege on the #Gaza Strip. There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel, everything is closed.’ [..]

"In terms of the framework elaborated by David Marcus, a law professor at UCLA, this is a prima facie indication of a first-degree ‘#famine crime’."

"[F]or me this is unprecedented because of, one, the magnitude, the scale, the entire population of a particular place; second, the severity; and, third, the speed at which this is happening, at which this has unfolded, is unprecedented. In my life, I’ve never seen anything like this in terms of severity, in terms of scale, and then in terms of speed."
