Israel far-right minister says 'time to go in with full force' in Gaza
The Daily Guardian
|May 31, 2025
The UN warned on Friday that the entire population of Gaza is at risk of famine, as Israel vowed to build a "Jewish Israeli state" in the occupied West Bank.
Israel has faced mounting international pressure over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where the UN says only a trickle of aid has been allowed in after a more than two-month blockade.
Negotiations to end nearly 20 months of war in Gaza have so far failed to achieve a breakthrough, with Israel resuming operations in March following a short-lived truce.
Israel has meanwhile doubled down on its settlement expansion in the West Bank, while defying calls from French President Emmanuel Macron and other world leaders for a two-state solution.
Jens Laerke, a spokesman for the UN humanitarian agency OCHA, on Friday called Gaza "the hungriest place on earth".
"It's the only defined area -- a country or defined territory within a country -- where you have the entire population at risk of famine. One hundred percent of the population at risk of famine," he said.
