'Gaza humanitarian crisis spurs US-Israel confrontation,' says US official

A White House advisor quoted by The Washington Post said that the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is deemed intolerable, described as a moral stain on humanity.

The official added that this dire situation prompted the American administration to confront Israeli Occupation openly.

Additionally, President Joe Biden's aides expressed distress over warnings of an impending famine and reports of children dying from malnutrition in Gaza.

For the 169th consecutive day, the Israeli Occupation Forces have continued their aggression against the Gaza Strip, exacerbating an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe.

Civilians, particularly in the northern Gaza Strip, face the grim reality of starvation, with official figures indicating that over 27 Palestinians, mostly children, have succumbed to malnutrition and starvation.

The UN Security Council has postponed voting on a draft resolution, proposed by seven non-permanent member states, which calls for a ceasefire in Gaza during the month of Ramadan. The delay in the vote follows negotiations led by Washington.

Russia and China blocked a draft resolution put forward by Washington, criticizing it as politicized and giving Israeli Occupation undue leverage.

Notably, the government media office in Gaza has condemned the Israeli Occupation army for its deliberate killing of unarmed civilians in a manner devoid of humanity.
