He added that many patients die even after being operated on due to a lack of food to aid with their recovery. Dr Thawaba also detailed how Palestinians are forced to spend their days looking for food, water and electricity to charge their phones as these all have been in increasingly short supply after Israel unilaterally broke the ceasefire in March. His statements come at a time of mounting international pressure on Israel to allow safe and sustainable passage of humanitarian aid, amid warnings from the United Nations and relief organisations of the risk of famine and disease outbreaks in the besieged strip.
