The threat of famine looms over Palestinians in Gaza: Palestinian NGOs

In a press statement today, the Palestinian Non-Governmental Organizations Network (PNGO) said that Palestinians, especially in the northern Gaza Strip, are living in catastrophic and inhumane conditions after they ran out of basic food supplies.

“The network holds the international community fully responsible for this crisis resulting from the occupation war and its siege imposed on our people,” the statement said.

The risk of death from starvation threatens about half a million citizens in Gaza City and northern Gaza, said the PNGO in a statement.
