The deliberate starvation hasn’t ended, as government officials in Gaza say that only around 200 trucks of food per day are being allowed through their borders, far short of the agreed-upon 600. As a result, malnutrition levels are still around 90 percent. www.currentaffairs.org/news/the-gaz...
The Gaza “Ceasefire” is a Total Fraud
The fire has not, in fact, ceased, and there have to be meaningful penalties for Israel’s violations.

From all-out genocide, Israeli leaders have shifted to a more sporadic series of attacks that they hope will be ignored by the Trump administration, along with others in the U.S. who have a vested interest in pretending a meaningful peace has been reached.

If it were Hamas that were constantly bombing and killing hundreds of Israelis, it would not be described as a “test” of the ceasefire. Reporters would be able to call it what it is: a clear-cut violation, whose perpetrators should be held accountable.

Because of the “ceasefire” narrative, people will starve. And this is the purpose of spreading the narrative to begin with: to draw the eyes of the world away from Gaza and let Palestinians suffer and die in silence.

<p>Israeli security forces shot two Palestinian men on Thursday who appeared to be surrendering and unarmed during a raid in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, Palestine TV news footage showed.</p>
<p>In the footage, the men are seen exiting a building surrounded by armed Israeli forces in the northern West Bank city of Jenin, lifting their shirts and lying on the ground in an apparent surrender. The forces then appeared to direct the men back inside the building before opening fire at close range.</p>
<p>A Reuters journalist in the vicinity saw the men leave the building, appearing to surrender, and later, after hearing shots fired, saw Israeli forces standing near what appeared to be a lifeless body.</p>
<p>The Palestinian health ministry said in a statement that the two men were killed in the shooting, identifying them as 26-year-old Montasir Abdullah and 37-year-old Yusuf Asasa.</p>
<p>The Israeli military and Israel Police issued a joint statement announcing that they had opened an investigation after forces opened fire towards suspects who had exited a building.</p>
<p>The statement did not give any reason for why the forces opened fire, nor say that the two men had lain on the ground before they were directed back inside the building and shot.</p>
