The Israeli government closed off all of #Gaza’s border crossings two months ago, blocking lifesaving aid. A ceasefire is the only way to save lives, secure the release of the hostages, and allow humanitarians to respond at scale. bit.ly/3SqeauV

The entire population of #Gaza, 2.1 million people, are now facing Crisis-level hunger or worse, according to yesterday's IPC report. This cannot continue. Israel MUST allow humanitarian aid to flow at scale, safely and unhindered. 🔗 bit.ly/4mdZo8c

Fuel reserves in Gaza are currently inaccessible due to displacement orders and militarised zones. If this continues, critical services collapse — hospitals shut down, water and sanitation becomes unsafe, responders and civilians are cut off from telecommunications. #FuelForGaza

We welcome the news overnight that Australia has joined with 27 other countries to condemn Israel for denying humanitarian aid to #Palestinians. The killing of hundreds of #Gazans trying to reach aid is absolutely indefensible. bit.ly/3Un8Fhs
