Famine Officially Declared In Gaza For The First Time by God1000(op): 8:55am On Aug 23, 2025

Famine has been declared in Gaza’s largest city, Gaza City.

According to the UN rights chief, famine in the Gaza Governorate is the direct result of Israeli actions. He warned that using starvation as a weapon is a war crime and that the resulting deaths could amount to “wilful killing.”

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) confirmed that famine — caused by Israel’s total blockade of aid into Palestine’s Gaza — is already under way in the city that shelters hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, warning it could soon engulf Deir al Balah and Khan Younis before next month is over.

This is heartbreaking, Israel is deliberately starving Palestinians to death

Imagine what the hypocritical america would have done to any country aiding and abetting such genocide, but they see nothing wrong in this

Tell your hamas to release the hostages. All these propangada won't stop the destruction of Gaza city in the coming weeks.
You guys have started pushing famine propangada as IDF has started destroying the last strong hold of Gaza. Nothing will stop IDF from driving Hamas and all Iran sponsored terrorist out of levant.

Why can't Hamas accept peace and release the hostages they have in their custody. Hamas is really behind the killings and suffering of the people of Palestine.

What is hard to tell Hamas to release the hostages and end the war? Are u saying that the one that is beaten shouldn't cry? They all celebrated when Hamas hit Isreal on the 7th of October, and now they should be ready to contain the tears of the IDF. If the world really wants this war to stop, it's clear and simple, pressure Hamas to release the hostages and Isreal would have no justification any longer to continue the war. U can't kill the Isrealites and hold on to their people as hostages unprovoked,and still be crying as the victim!

UNWRA must go. Nothing the UN says is material at this point. UN cannot be allowed to perpetuate Israeli- Arab conflict forever and is using it as cash cow to dupe western countries into paying perpetual fees to keep the conflict going.

UNWRA was established to resettle Palestinian refugees but after 70 years with a budget more than its counterpart, no Palestinian has been settled.

Those pushing these propaganda are people with very s i c k and w i c k e d thought for the people of Gaza.

The truth is that: no one loves Gaza.

What they are simply interested in is the d e a t ru c t i o n of Israel. The gazans are just an unfortunate tool in this situation.

Failing to clear Gaza and making it a heap of d e s o l a t e rubbles on Oct 8.

The UN rights chief declared that the famine in the Gaza Governorate is a direct result of Israeli actions. Meanwhile, in Nigeria, under the wicked and draconian Tinubu regime, more deaths have been recorded, and famine is also present, yet the UN has not declared a famine there. What is the UN waiting for?

UNWRA must not be allowed to continue. UNWRA should be merged with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)

Trump claimed that his reason for wanting the Ukraine Russia war to end is because he sees it as an opportunity that will be his key to go to heaven. Lol 😂

But Trump can't be funding the war against Palestinians thinking he will make heaven just because he may be able to stop the war between Russia and Ukraine. 😁

Hamas is primarily to blame in all these. Why did they start a war they cannot finish? To worsen things, they are still holding Israeli hostages captive till now. Hamas is not ready for peace, I blame them for the starvation in Gaza. Hamas should provide food for starving Palestinians instead of waiting for Israel.
