"We are not alone in facing unacceptable challenges that defy the most basic obligations of an occupying power under international law. The registration process for international NGOs has become a de facto blockade in itself, with the vast majority of the existing aid system now on the brink of shutdown. Restrictions on so-called dual-use items have turned basic shelter and construction materials, among other essential supplies, into contraband, leaving families exposed to the elements and rendering reconstruction impossible as harsh winter weather persists. This brings us to the uncomfortable truth: These restrictions are not merely bureaucratic impediments. They appear to be part of ongoing efforts to systematically dismantle the means for Palestinians to survive. Every restriction, every obstacle, every denial of basic materials adds another layer of evidence..."

"Then there’s the latest Israeli innovation: the humanitarian gag order. Thirty-seven aid organizations suspended.

"The deregistration of 37 INGOs undermines principled humanitarian action, endangers staff and communities, and compromises effective aid delivery." "Ensuring access to humanitarian aid is a legal obligation, not a discretionary choice.”

I saw many atrocities as a senior aid official in Gaza. Now Israeli authorities are trying to silence us. Devastated hospitals, mass graves, bodies eaten by dogs in the street. After speaking out, I discovered my visa will not be renewed

“The humanitarian community calls for an end to the so-called "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" (GHF) since it provides nothing but starvation and gunfire to the people of Gaza. Since this scheme began, at least 500 starving people have been reported killed and nearly 4,000 injured while desperately struggling to get food. Under this new abomination, Gaza has gone from 400 aid distribution points to only four militarized distribution sites. Today, over 130 NGOs have called for the restoration of unified, UN-led coordination and distribution based on international humanitarian law inclusive of UNRWA.” Read the joint statement
