One Father's Story: A Journey into Uncertainty For over 50 days, Israel has laid siege to North Gaza, plunging Palestinian children, women, and men into a living nightmare. Amidst apocalyptic scenes, people struggle to survive without sufficient food, water, and essential aid. The scale of death, destruction, and deprivation is unimaginable. This is the direct testimony of a former desalination plant worker, supported by Oxfam. He recounts his journey to Gaza City with his family after being displaced from their home in North Gaza. Traveling with a large crowd, they faced enormous challenges along the way. For 15 days, they endured severely depleted resources, with limited water and very little food. In extremely difficult conditions, they moved together for safety.

A relentless Israeli #siege is underway in the North #Gaza Governorate, an area at the northernmost tip of the Gaza Strip. Israel's actions amount to ethnic cleansing. For over 50 days now, Israeli forces have imposed complete blocks to the supply of food, medicine and other essential aid. People’s ability to cope is completely depleted. The situation is beyond catastrophic. #ceasefirenow

Oxfam in Jerusalem reposted this
Today’s High Court hearing delayed any decisions in the case calling for the UK Government to end arms sales to Israel until January. But the people of Gaza cannot wait. Despite admitting that there is a clear risk that UK arms could be used in violations of international law, the UK Government has suspended only 30 arms licences out of 350 – and left a loophole that allows them to continue exporting parts to Israel for F-35 fighter jets, which are being used to bomb Gaza. This makes them complicit in the atrocities being committed and breaks international law. #StopArmingIsrael Sign our petition: https://lnkd.in/dNDZPP4q

🆘 As Israel's war on Gaza continues, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in southern Gaza are forced into makeshift camps, enduring extreme hardships with limited access to essentials like clean water, food and sanitation. Lisa from Oxfam reports on the critical need for humanitarian aid, which Israel is currently restricting. A permanent ceasefire is the most vital intervention to get aid to Gaza safely and at scale and the first step towards a peaceful and just resolution. #Oxfam #HumanitarianAid #CeasefireNow #Gaza
