UN: 1 in 3 People in Gaza has gone days without food
The United Nations stated on Monday that Israel, the occupying power, continues to obstruct humanitarian aid initiatives for Gaza, confirming that occupation authorities rejected 3 out of 8 UN relief proposals just yesterday (Sunday).
UN spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric revealed "1 in 3 people in Gaza has not eaten for days.'
Fuel—a "lifeline for survival"—remains blocked, exacerbating the collapse of food and medical systems.
Israel denied 37.5% of UN aid initiatives (3 of 8) on Sunday alone.
Dujarric demanded Israel "open all crossings immediately" to comply with international humanitarian law.
700,000 Gazans have been displaced multiple times since Israel violated the March ceasefire.
No safe zones remain; civilians face bombardment even in designated "humanitarian areas'.
57,523 martyrs (mostly children/women) and 136,617 injured since October 7, 2023.
Thousands more remain trapped under rubble, unreachable due to ongoing attacks and blockade.
The statement condemned U.S. and European support enabling Israel's genocide, now in its 10th month with no accountability.

Democratic Party condemns Israeli aggression against people of Gaza, calls for international stance to put end to massacres
Gaza - Saba The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) on Wednesday condemned what it described as Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, accusing the Israeli military of pursuing a policy of mass killing throughout the territory. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (SABA), the DFLP said that the large-scale killing campaign has led to a terrifying rise in the number of Palestinian martyrs — all civilians, including women, children, and the elderly — in addition to the deliberate targeting of residential buildings that had not yet been destroyed. The group stated: 'It is no longer a secret that the Israeli occupation forces, as they pay a heavy price in the lives of their soldiers and officers at the hands of our fighters and resistance heroes, are resorting to genocide, scorched-earth tactics, and further war crimes, mistakenly thinking this will boost the morale of their soldiers and the families now receiving their sons in coffins.' The DFLP called on the international community to act and pressure Israel to end its massacres and aggressive actions against the Palestinian people, stressing that the 'only way for the occupation forces — soldiers and officers — to escape the fire of our fighters is to completely withdraw from every inch of the Gaza Strip.'

Four crew dead in attack on ship off Yemen as Red Sea crisis reignites
Four crew members of a Greek-operated bulk carrier have been killed in an attack by sea drones and speedboats off Yemen, an EU mission and a delegation from Liberia told a meeting of the UN shipping agency IMO on Tuesday. The Eternity C, a Liberia-flagged vessel, was attacked on Monday evening off the coast of Hodeidah, maritime monitors reported. It was the second Red Sea attack in 24 hours after a recent period of relative calm. The UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO), run by the British Navy, said the ship sustained significant damage and lost propulsion after being hit by five rocket grenades. It came after Sunday's attack on a Greek-operated ship, when the Magic Seas was hit by gunfire, drones and missiles, also in the Red Sea. Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for Sunday's attack. Previously, the Houthis relied on missiles, single-use drones or occasionally boat-launched rockets. Now, they have wired these elements into a multipronged 'swarm' approach, with surface boats, aerial drones, missiles, and firearms all converging on a single target. The Houthis have been attacking Israel and commercial vessels in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden since the Gaza war broke out in October 2023. But the latest incidents are rare assaults in the strategic waters near Yemen, coming two months after the US announced a truce with the Houthis aimed at halting attacks on ships in the region. In response, Israel has been carrying out strikes on Yemen. The Yemeni port city of Hodeidah was struck on Sunday night, along with the ports of Ras Isa and Salif and the Ras Al Khatib power station, the Houthi-run Al Masirah television channel reported. The Israeli military said it 'struck and destroyed terror infrastructure belonging to the Houthi terrorist regime'. 'Among the targets were the ports of Hodeidah, Ras Isa and Salif,' the military said. It was the Israeli army's first attack on Yemen in about a month. The army also hit the Galaxy Leader ship docked at Ras Isa port, which was seized by the Iran-backed Houthis in late 2023. Ambrey said early on Tuesday it had observed imagery that confirmed damage to concrete docks at Hodeidah following the Israeli strikes. Additionally, two Barbados-flagged bulk carriers are thought to have suffered blast damage as a result of the attacks, Ambrey said in an advisory note, adding no injuries among the crews had been reported.

"Democracy": Israeli enemy wants to continue its policy of starvation
Gaza – Saba: The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) considered that the Israeli enemy's continued rejection of any role for UN institutions and its insistence on only distributing relief supplies in the Gaza Strip reveals its desire to continue its policy of starving the population of the Strip. The DFLP said in a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba): "The insistence of the fascist Israeli state in the Doha negotiations, its rejection of any role for UN institutions, and its insistence on solely distributing relief supplies to our people in the Gaza Strip, even during the ceasefire, reveals its blatant desire to hold on to the livelihoods of the people and to continue its policy of starving the population of the Gaza Strip under the pretext of discrimination between "civilians" within the Strip.
