Gaza's hunger could be prevented if Israel did not raise systematic obstacles, the Deputy Secretary General of the United Nations and the Coordinator of Emergency Aid, Tom Fletscher stated.
"This hunger could be prevented if we were allowed. However, food is accumulated near the borders due to coordinated obstacles by Israel. This is a hunger for several hundred meters from food, "Fletcher told reporters on Friday.
According to him, "some Israeli leaders use hunger as a tool of war."
