00:00Some 2.3 million Palestinians living in Gaza face critical living conditions,
00:05as the Israeli government has maintained a fierce blockade for the past 60 days,
00:11preventing the arrival of food, medicines and other supplies essential for human life.
00:16Let's see more.
00:19Israel imposed the blockade on March 2nd,
00:23then shattered a two-month ceasefire by resuming military operations in March 18th.
00:28It said both steps aim to pressure Hamas into releasing hostages.
00:33Human rights groups call the blockade a starvation tactic,
00:38endangering the entire population in a potential war crime.
00:46I can't find anything to buy.
00:49Even if I wanted to buy something, I ask for cucumbers and he tells me 15 and 20 shekels,
00:53tomatoes 30 shekels, an ounce of peppers is 10 shekels, how many thousand shekels do we have to buy?
00:59How much are potatoes today?
01:00He says a kilo of potatoes is 40 and 45 shekels.
01:03I have 8 and 9 people.
01:05How many fruits do I need to feed them?
01:07What is happening to us?
01:08Israeli troops have destroyed the vast majority of the territory's farmland and greenhouses
01:18or closed them off within military zones where anyone approaching risks being shot.
01:23We live on pasta, peas or rice.
01:31Pasta, peas or rice and lentils.
01:34There is nothing, I swear to God.
01:36My husband and I are cancer patients and we crave a tomato, a piece of fruit, a cucumber or an apple.
01:41There is nothing.
01:42I stopped taking the medication and the disease is spreading more
01:45and my husband in European hospital and I have no food to take him.
01:49Where can I get them?
01:50Where can I get for them the food and drink?
01:56The situation is becoming more critical by the day
01:59while bakeries, hospitals and humanitarian groups allege
02:03that the lack of resources is critically affecting their ability
02:07to provide all kinds of basic supplies to an increasingly sick and undersupplied population.
02:13I'm afraid they'll die of hunger.
02:21He doesn't know what kofto is.
02:23We forgot meat, we forgot chicken, we forgot everything.
02:26And I'm afraid something will happen to my son's children
02:29because of the lack of food and nutrition.
02:31Since October 7th, 2023, Israel has killed over 51,000 Palestinians,
02:44mostly women and children, according to Gaza's health ministry,
02:48whose count does not distinguish between civilians and combatants.
02:52Almost the entire population has been driven from their homes.
02:56I'm afraid of being driven from their homes.
