AMMAN — Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs AymanSafadi has urged “immediate” action to end starvation in Gaza, calling for unimpeded aid delivery in the Strip.
“Starvation is the inhumane reality of Gaza. The world has a moral and legal responsibility to end this horrific catastrophe,” Safadi wrote on X platform.
The foreign minister called on the international community to act and save Palestinians in war-torn Gaza from “death by bombs, hunger, dehydration and absence of medical care.”
“Starving 2.3 million Palestinians is a crime that the world must act to stop now. Saving them from death by bombs, hunger, dehydration and absence of medical care must be the priority for which the whole international community must mobilize.”
He also called for lifting Israeli siege on Gaza and delivering aid to the Strip, adding “Israel must allow UN organisations to distribute it.”
“An exchange deal must be concluded, and the aggression must end immediately,” he said.
