<p>GAZA, (PIC)</p>
<p>The Government Media Office (GMO) in Gaza has urged the World Food
Program to immediately reverse its catastrophic decision to suspend the
delivery of food aid in northern Gaza, holding the United Nations and
the international community responsible for such a decision.</p>
<p>The GMO said in a press statement on Tuesday, “We received with shock
the decision of the World Food Program to suspend the delivery of food
aid in the governorates of Gaza and the North.”</p>
<p>It warned that this decision means a death sentence for
three-quarters of a million people, exacerbating the humanitarian
situation exponentially. “We express our absolute rejection of this
decision, which will leave behind a global catastrophe.”</p>

<p>The GMO urged all United Nations agencies to urgently return to work
in Gaza City and the North without hesitation, instead of evading and
escaping their international responsibilities and duties, which they are
obliged to fulfill. “They must take full responsibility for the clear
shortcomings in carrying out their assigned work, as well as for the
catastrophic consequences of the famine deepening in the Gaza Strip,” it
added.</p>
<p>It also called on Arab and Islamic countries to take a historical,
ethical, and humanitarian stance in the face of this humanitarian
catastrophe, manifested in the Gaza Strip, especially in the genocide
and starvation wars. “We call on Arab peoples to take to the streets in
protest marches in support of Gaza, which is subjected to genocide
against civilians, children, and women.”</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the death
toll from the Israeli aggression has risen to 29,313 martyrs and 69,333
injuries since October 7th last year.</p>
<p>It said that some of the victims are still under the rubble and on
the roads, where the Israeli occupation army prevents ambulance and
civil defense crews from reaching them.</p>
