UN condemns 'weaponisation of food' in Gaza
Daily News
|June 25, 2025
THE United Nations yesterday condemned Israel’s apparent “weaponisation of food” in Gaza, a war crime, and urged Israel’s military to “stop shooting at people trying to get food”.
-
“Israel’s militarised humanitarian assistance mechanism is in contradiction with international standards on aid distribution,” the UN human rights office said in written notes provided before a briefing.
“Desperate, hungry people in Gaza continue to face the inhumane choice of either starving to death or risk being killed while trying to get food.”
The US - and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) began food distribution operations in Gaza on May 26 after Israel completely cut off supplies into the occupied Palestinian territory for more than two months, sparking warnings of mass famine.
The UN said in May that “100% of the population” of the besieged territory were “ at risk of famine”.
