3/ #GazaGenocide - As part of their strategy to weaponise food, the Israelis have completely destroyed “87 percent of agricultural land and greenhouses” in the Gaza Strip. There are few sources of protein, if any: “Meat and dairy production have ceased, and the poultry sector has likewise been devastated.” “Military operations have resulted in the destruction of 8,700 agricultural wells and 9,992 cattle, sheep, and poultry farms, as well as the killing of approximately 69,000 head of livestock,” the report adds.
Having destroyed Gaza’s capacity to produce food for its inhabitants, the Israelis have continued attacking aid convoys and community kitchens to ensure that starvation persists as a weapon of war. On top of this, the Israelis have been regularly killing aid seekers and aid workers. According to Al Mezan, “Approximately 128 aid convoys, 64 distribution centres, and 48 charitable food kitchens have been targeted, resulting in the killing of 2,605 people seeking aid and aid workers.”
