Israel is blocking ALL food and aid from entering Gaza

The Israeli government is once again using starvation as a tactic in Gaza. We need more leaders willing to speak out and stop them.

Harris,

With the ongoing ceasefire deal between Israel and Gaza consistently violated and delayed by the Israeli government, last weekend Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Israel is stopping the entry of ALL food and supplies into Gaza – a blatant war crime.

A post on X from the Associated Press reading: 'BREAKING: Israel says it is stopping the entry of all goods and supplies into Gaza.' The post contains a map of Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank.

Remember: Israel has already used mass starvation as a tool in their genocidal war against Palestine. The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant last November over their use of starvation throughout the conflict.

This aid blockage comes after the Israeli military has already violated the ceasefire countless times, including a recent shelling near Khan Younis that killed 5 Palestinians and injured 21 others.

And they don't plan on stopping there: Israel's Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said, "The next phase includes cutting off electricity and water and resuming fighting to advance Trump's plan" and "opening the gates of hell on Gaza with a powerful, deadly and quick attack."

This is not a genuine attempt at achieving peace and returning the hostages, but clear and intentional ethnic cleansing — and the Trump administration is fully backing it for the chance to occupy some or all of the Gaza Strip in partnership with Netanyahu.

Justice Democrats is proud to support progressive champions like Reps. Rashida Tlaib, Summer Lee, Delia Ramirez and many others who have consistently and bravely stood up for Palestinians' human rights. But we desperately need more Democrats in Congress who will speak out against this genocide and do something to end it.
