    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The UN humanitarian chief has described Gaza as “uninhabitable” three months into Israel’s war with Hamas, warning that famine was looming and a public health disaster unfolding.

    In a grim assessment of the devastating impact of Israel’s military response to the horrific Hamas attacks on 7 October, Martin Griffiths said that Gaza’s 2.3 million people face “daily threats to their very existence” while the world just watches.

    He said tens of thousands of people, mostly women and children, have been killed or injured, families are sleeping in the open as temperatures plummet and areas where Palestinians were told to relocate have been bombed.

    The few partly functioning hospitals are overwhelmed and critically short of supplies, medical facilities are under relentless attack, infectious diseases are spreading and amid the chaos about 180 Palestinian women are giving birth every day.

    He said the humanitarian community is facing an “impossible mission” – trying to help more than 2 million people while UN staff and aid workers from partner organisations are killed, communications blackouts continue, roads are damaged, truck convoys are shot at and vital commercial supplies “are almost nonexistent”.

    Israel’s air, ground and sea assault in Gaza, aimed at obliterating Hamas, has killed more than 22,400 people, two-thirds of them women and children, according to the health ministry in the Hamas-ruled territory.

      Honestly Hamas needs to surrender. Let this end.

      How many Palestinians are they content with dying while fighting a war they could never win.

        Palestinian quality of life has already been shit for decades. Most of their water is poisoned, they’re allowed barely enough calories, the sky is so filled with spy drones they can’t sleep, they don’t control their own power, water, sky, trade, freedom of movement, etc. They fight because they have no other choice. They’re not going to give up or lose Hamas members while their quality of life sucks and they stay oppressed.

        Unless Israel goes the genocide route…

        Hamas surrender would only “end this” for Israel. Palestinians would still be living in the same apartheid state they’ve been living in for decades.

          Ok let’s make this maths easy:

          Have things got better for Palestinians since the war started?

          If the war continues are things going to get better or worse for Palestinians?

            It’s so sad to see you guys warmongering. Let the fighting continue!

            You know this will hurt the Palestinians more but you try to pretend that more war is going to magically help them somehow.

            The minute Hamas surrenders or is crushed the UN can pour in aid and the rest of the world will pour in money too to rebuild.

            Can’t have that can we - you guys want as much pain and suffering as possible to push extremism in the area. Sickening to see people pushing for war and suffering!
