Urges Israel To Lift Blockade

We speak with Eyad Amawi, an aid coordinator in Gaza, who tells Democracy Now! about the "rapid deterioration" inside the besieged territory as Israel's blockade causes mass starvation.

Health officials in Gaza say at least 14 Palestinians have starved to death over the past day, bringing the total to at least 147, including 88 children. Israel has allowed some additional aid into the territory, including by airdrops, but the United Nations says it's still just a "drop in the ocean" of what is needed.

Israel also said it would pause attacks for periods of the day in parts of Gaza, but the death toll has kept rising, with Israeli forces continuing to fire on unarmed civilians seeking aid.

Two leading Israeli human rights groups, B'Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights Israel, issued reports on Monday accusing Israel of committing genocide in Gaza, joining a growing international consensus.

"We have no time to wait," says Amawi, who calls Israel's restrictions on food, water, medicine and other essentials "collective punishment."
