In a stark turn of events, the United Nations (UN) reports that Israel has rejected over 100 requests for humanitarian aid deliveries since October, according to Dutch daily de Volkskrant. This revelation underscores the deepening humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, where the Israeli military has reportedly killed 28 Palestinians in a single night, including civilians, as stated by(absence: NRC).
The escalating violence has drawn international scrutiny, with Israeli historian Lee Mordechai alleging in interviews with NOS and NPO Radio 1 that Israel is committing war crimes and genocide in Gaza. Meanwhile, human rights group Amnesty International has faced criticism for using "big words without much substance" in its report alleging Israel’s actions amount to genocide, as argued by Dutch think tank CIDI.
The Israeli military has also reportedly ordered the evacuation of a Gaza hospital, further exacerbating the dire conditions for wounded civilians, according to NRC.
