Israel again attacks the Gaza Strip: 22 dead and international criticism!

attacks in Israel in the Gaza Strip have led to at least 22 dead and dozens of injuries since the night of Saturday, as Palestinian medical sources report. So far, this information has not been verified independently. The deaths were reported in the fields around Khan Younis, Rafah and the city of Gaza. Israel has been running against Hamas in the Gaza Strip since the massacre of October 7, 2023 and three weeks ago started a new major offensive that aims to smash Hamas and get hostages. vienna.at reports of international criticism of Israel, especially with regard to the humanitarian situation on site.

The humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip is dramatic. Over 20% of the population face hunger and 93% suffer from acute food bottlenecks, while the Israeli blockade has prevented all deliveries of food and auxiliary goods since March 2, 2025. Children are particularly affected and many families fight to provide their children with sufficient food. While soup kitchens in Chan Yunis provide almost a million people with warm food, the UN has found an alarming situation, including the explanation of around 70% of the Gaza Strip as a blocking and evacuation zones. tagesschau.de emphasizes that the Israeli government maintains the blockade as long as the Hamas does not expire.

The role of the Gaza Humanitrian Foundation

The Gaza Humanitrian Foundation (GHF) recently started distributing relief goods in the Gaza Strip and operates four distribution centers. This initiative is viewed by the US government as the key to solving the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip. The US State Department is even considering a payment of $ 500 million to GHF to support its operations for the next 180 days, which may be financed by the USA agency for International Development (USA). However, there are considerable concerns about the neutrality of the GHF. UN representatives and humanitarian groups doubt their ability to adequately address the catastrophic location in the Gaza Strip. aljazera.com reports that the GHF would like to expand its offer to 1.2 million people.

The GHF is officially independent, but is unfairly associated with Israel and the USA. Critics argue that the GHF violates human principles and the help is politically and militarily exploited. Several humanitarian and human rights organizations reject their activities and emphasize the need for a stronger Palestinian participation in humanitarian aid measures. It remains unclear who is financed by the ongoing operations of the GHF because the organization indicates that the United States and Israel have not received any support.

The current developments in the Gaza Strip raise urgent questions about the future of the offer of help and humanitarian cooperation. In the middle of the intensive arguments and the severe humanitarian situation, the pressure on everyone involved has grown to find a solution that meets the needs of the population.
