Ghazi Hamad, a senior member of Hamas’ political bureau, has said that many people have starved to death since the start of the war in Gaza.
Ghazi Hamad stated this during an Interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today.
He said that apart from thousands of innocent Palestinians killed since the beginning of the war, Israeli soldiers killed about 126 journalists, more than 166 medical staff and about 100 United Nations staff in Gaza.
Hamad said, “The situation in Gaza is catastrophic and hard because we lost a lot of people. When the war started we lost about 3,000 innocent people and 30,000 children were killed 10,000 women were killed. They destroyed hospitals, schools and universities. They killed about 126 journalists. They killed about 166 medical staff and about 100 United Nations staff in Gaza.
“We have been under occupation which include killings and assassinations. They took everything: our identity, passport, and freedom. We lost everything. For example, I live in Gaza. Israel controls everywhere including the border. I can’t go anywhere. They control land and air. We could not export or import. We live in a very hard situation.
“On the side of Egypt, they put checkpoints and restrictions. In Gaza we are suffering from starvation. Many people died of starvation. There are calls by the United Nations and some organizations asking Israel to allow for movements.”
