"The current level of need in Gaza, after 15 months of war, is staggering. In the last few weeks alone, seven babies have died of hypothermia amid a dire shortage of tents, shelter materials and warm clothes. Many more people will die if urgently needed supplies of food, water, fuel, medicines and other essentials are cut off.
“Life-saving aid must never be used as a bargaining chip. The Israeli authorities must adhere to international humanitarian law and allow humanitarian supplies to flow unhindered into Gaza. The international community must do everything in its power to secure this outcome, as well as ensure the release of the hostages and a permanent end to the war in Gaza.”
