- The United Nations has warned that its humanitarian operations inside Gaza are nearing collapse. The organization says it is no longer able to distribute food aid in the southern city of Rafah due to a lack of supplies and fears over the safety of its staff. It says that UNRWA, its main aid agency for Palestinian refugees, as well as the World Food Program, are unable to access their warehouses in Rafah due to Israel's ongoing military operation. UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric presented a bleak account of the situation on the ground, saying UN staff are “not sticking around to see who’s doing the firing.” Furthermore, the UN says northern Gaza is experiencing a “full-blown famine,” while the entire Gaza Strip is facing unprecedented levels of hunger.
Earlier in May, Israel launched a military operation into Rafah, a city that had housed over a million refugees, vowing to root out remaining Hamas fighters. COGAT, the Israeli military office which oversees Palestinian civilian affairs, has reported that 900,000 Palestinians have fled Rafah.

What about the conditiion of the hostages?
They’re doing just fine.
Conveniently, no one mentions that Egypt is blocking its side of the border.
And why would that matter?
But, while Egypt is not letting Palestinians out, they are not stopping most of the aid from going in. It is Israel stopping most of the aid from going in. It is Israel preventing most of the distribution of the aid which gets in. If you listen in Hebrew to things being said in Israel about this, there is an overwhelming support for starving all Gazans, making Gaza unlivable for all Gazans, and that all Gazans including infants are valid Hamas fighter targets which means there are no innocent civilians to avoid killing.
Talk about the hostages. We've heard enough about this.
Why did Hamas start this war, it’s a tragedy for both sides and wholly unnecessary
The next time a robber attacked you and displaced you from your own home I will ask you the same !
@@lasthope4177 I’ve heard this analogy a million times, it’s always starting with the wrong premise that people who recently started calling themselves Palestinians are somehow the historical and rightful owners of this land
"Why did Hamas start this war,"
Go to the wikipage Israel Palestine conflict.
You will be surprised that it did not actually start in 2023.
The two sides are doing horrible things to each other for decades.
If you sign up to the idea that oct 7 is justificication for the massmurder Israel commits in Gaza at the momnt
Then why would the previous massmurders of Israel not b justification for oct 7.
Typically israel kills between 10 and 20 times more palestinians than the other way arround.
So if revenge is a valid justification... well the palestians have a endless suppy of things to revenge for
Hamas is not in the fortunate position that they can press on a button and Nethanyahu gets a missle in his face.
So their revenge might be a bit more delayed in time...
It wasn't a random act. It was partly in response to the settlers who are trying to take even more land away from the Palestinians. When you see dates in the supermarket which come from here, they're all the property of the Israelis. They have even taken over all the farming in Gaza leaving the palestinians with nothing. (This was before the war started).😮
@@lasthope4177 haha , what non sense
"We just want the war to end", then why not ask Hamas to release the hostages and surrender?
You think Hamas will listen to their slaves?
All the people that get interviewed are Hamas approved and probably part (or family) of them
Well they want the war to end but also want the hostages. For them it is logic somehow 😂
Because Hamas doesn't care about Palestinian demands or well-being. You may listen in a democratic country where the government at least somewhat cares for its popularity... this is not the case for Gaza. If Hamas cared about Gazans and not only their warped up ideology, they wouldn't be using Gazans as human shields and letting them get slaughtered like this.
They voted for them(.)
So where are the kidnaped?
Let them eat cake
If Hamas gives back the hostages and surrenders this will end. Using human shields is despicable.
Discrepancy? think you mean lies!
RAFAH ITSELF IS ON THE VERGE OF COLLAPSE. IN THE WORDS OF FAMOUS CANADIAN ROCKERS BTO: YOU AIN’T SEEN NOTHING YET.
There are at least 50 vehicle sized tunnels from Egypt to Rafah. Try carrying aid in them instead of weapons !! Hypocrites!!
Egypt took those out.
UNRWA's distribution for Hamas no longer arriving?
Still waiting on Proof on UNWRAs involvement.
@@mariahewitt9787 Are you really that gullible? What do you think happened to the billions in aid, not just from UNWRA, that went into Gaza. Hamas built a Palestinaian Singapore with it? LOL!
@@gardencity3558 So no proof then.
@@gardencity3558
"Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian State, has to support bolstering Hamas, and transferring money to Hamas.
This is part of our strategy to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza, from the West Bank "
Benjamin Netanyahu told his Likud colleague, march 2019..

Avner Cohen, former Israeli Religious Affairs Official, who Worked in Gaza for over two Decades, Said....
"Hamas to my great regret, Is Israel's Creation "
It has been more than 250days and people have been able to fast. Right?
War is difficult. Stop educating your children to hate and believe in resistance. It’s her own fault she’s thirsty!
That's because the people have all been evacuated from Rafah.
They were told over and over to leave yet they settle in with terrorists embedded with their children 😞 shame of the Palestinians as a whole. Denounce hamas.
Where are the goods in the markets taken from? Who profits from it?
This war should end. Peace 🙏 must bring both sides.
Yes, Master Yoda
The irony of Gazans calling on OTHER people to end the war is incredibly rich. That guy on the beach has more power to end the war than does Germany. Why is he not marching in the streets protesting Hamas?
How long do you think you would survive in a war zone, 5 maybe 6 seconds??
@@luvitluvitbaby I currently live in a war zone and have been since October 7 so the answer is “at least 7 months.” You on the other hand…
@@adamredwine774 Yeah I don’t believe you. If you were there you would know that there are k*ll zones throughout that territory that are only known to the occupying forces themselves which means you could very easily, and unwittingly walk into such a zone or be spotted by a drone and it be it. But setting that aside, your day would be consumed with just surviving or in other words finding food and water for your family not protesting the resistance or arguing with me on CZcams.
If Hamas did not seek war everyone would be alive today . They attacked and their people suffered 😢
Really 😏😏😏😏
Sorry to the kids because they are caught in this situation,
The man who supported Hammers passed away, few days ago,
Look what he left in Gaza now kids are starving
Netanyahu supported Hamas as well. He is a war criminal who has turned his dubious nation into a pariah state.
kids are also starving in idf prisons. hms does not rule west bank. so obviously they are not the common factor here.
@@nvmtt1403no they aren't actually. That's actually a lie.
Do you seriously think this is Iran? how gullible are you?
Netanyahoo effectively created & funded modern Hamas, to prevent the PLO forming a state.
Are the Gazans ready to give back the hostages yet?
It's not the Gazans holding them, it's Hamas. Gaza has a population of 2 million who are innocent and being used as human shields by Hamas themselves.
@@kianak9152 All the manpower in Hamas are Gazans. It's the same thing.
@@electrolytics
"All the manpower in Hamas are Gazans."
First. That is not actually the case.
There are plenty of Hamas members that are not in Gaza or from Gaza.
Do you really not know that the political leadership of Hamas sits in Quatar?
Do you really believe there are no Hamas members in the westbank?
And second even if that would be true. It would NOT imply that all Gazeans would be Hamas
That all elephants are animals. Does not mean that all animals are elephants.
Are you struggling with basic logic?
@electrolytics no it's not. There is Hamas, and then there are ordinary, innocent Gazans that suffer under Hamas' rule. Like a dictatorship.
@@kianak9152 Yes it is!! Who do you think the thousands of Hamas men are? Where do you think they're from? Wake up.
So tired of hearing this same headline nearly daily for 6+ months now.
Have the 3 nations the recognize Palestine send food
We must not be silent while witnessing injustice. More than 35,500 Palestinians have lost their lives, mostly women and children.
My dad went to Ball State❤
Good, defund UNRWA
Dance now as you danced by October 7th. Such bastards
Wake up Germany You’re doing it again
History never really repeats but it most definitely rhymes
@@robertscahill7987 We never learned, did we? All the horrors of the 20th Century, all the people that died.... all was for nothing. Is truly dissapointing.
Long live Israel 💙
Good thing Israel told the population to escape Rafah, where the fighting inevitably leads to increased danger and difficulties in accessing humanitarian aid.
Ys escape to places where everything have been already destroyed earlier
'Trucks' are a bad measurement in itself, since it can vary greatly how much food theyre actually carrying.
but it does give a rough estimation on how much is needed. before the war at least 500 trucks were going in every day. even if idf says they let in 400 trucks in the 2 weeks since the offensive started, the numbers dont add up. doesnt matter how much each truck is carrying, it cant cover less than a days worth of supplies in 2 weeks.
Bad measurement is Israel stopping the Trucks from delivering the supplies, while children are dying of malnutrition...
Any supplies are better than nothing..
Stop making ridiculous excuses...
"The Ethnic Clearing of Palestine
Author Ilan Pappe, Israel's bravest, most principled, most incisive Historian
More stress is being laid in order to establish a state for Hamas than to negotiate and restore peace in the Middle East according to the wishes of both Palestine and Israel.
Just want more money
We can continue deliveries via air drop. We've done it in the past and we can do it now.
UN needs aid
The end of Islam!
Ask Hamas to free the hostages and it ends 🤷♀️
united nations?
Allahuakbar Allahuakbar Allahuakbar
😂😂😂😂
Some hostages died as a result of IDF aggression (bombed, shot while waving the white flag, gassed).
Just as Israel intends.
TAKEEEAAAABBBEERRRRRR... AALOOHHAAA SSNNAAACCCKKBBBAAARRRRRRRR........
They found Batman in Gaza 0:44
Free israel
Comments here seems to be boots or people misinformed, like why do you blame Palestinian people when hamas is the real problem? Paleastian peole are just victims like the hostages.
Woe to those apostate Arab Laknatullah pretendious, treacheous countries leaders.
Shame on you
Yasmin Porat survived October 7th and she stated that IDF killed Israeli captives (Haboker Hazeh radio program on 15 October 2023).
IDF killed 3 hostages in Gaza who were waving the white flag
Ireland officially recognizes Palestine
Thank you Ireland
A minority government did that. I hate to think the Irish have fallen that far into believing liars.
Ireland has their own history of resisting an oppressor state. So they can relate to the problem Palestinians face, of course they support their statehood.
Israel go out from sovereign territory of Palestine
Did you tell Hamas the same on 7 October?
why is that woman wearing a trash bag? are they tossing her out?
Sometimes you use whatever you can.
I've never been extremely poor, homeless, or in a warzone, but I do know that some people need to make use of everything.
Long life and good health to the people and governments of Norway Ireland Spain ✌️ the rest of the world must learn the humanity from Norway Ireland Spain 🕊️.
