Hamas stated that the Israeli Occupation government is engaging in severe collective punishment against unarmed civilians by imposing a total blockade on the Gaza Strip, closing crossings, and preventing aid convoys from entering. Over two million people are being systematically starved and deprived of basic necessities while facing ongoing brutal massacres.

In a statement on Tuesday, Hamas reported that the Israeli Occupation's criminal starvation tactics continue in Gaza, with escalating signs of famine and humanitarian disaster, especially in the Gaza and North Governorates.

Hamas called on the United Nations and the international community to take immediate action to aid Palestinians in Gaza, provide them with all necessary supplies, end the ongoing starvation and genocide, and break the fascist policies of the extremist Zionist government.
