Donald Trump announced on Monday, July 28, the establishment of “food distribution centers” in Gaza on Monday, July 28, where the famine threatens.
Donald Trump announced on Monday, July 28, that the United States would set up “food centers” in Gaza on Monday, July 28, adding that there were signs of a “real famine” in Palestinian territory.
“We are going to set up food centers where people will be able to enter freely-without limits. We will not have fences,” he told journalists in Scotland, where he met British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
The American president also tried in response to the question of a journalist that a cease-fire in Gaza is “possible”, although the mediation attempts carried out by the United States, Egypt and Qatar have not yet succeeded.
Evoking images of children from Gaza seen on television, he said: “It is a real famine”, adding: “It is not possible to simulate that.”
Donald Trump “is able to stop war”
Egyptian president Abdel Fattah al-Sissi called Donald Trump to act in the face of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, saying that “the time has come to end the war”.
Donald Trump “is able to put an end to war, allowing the delivery of humanitarian aid,” he said in a television address on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
The population of Gaza, which has more than two million people, is confronted according to the United Nations with increasing famine and generally malnutrition. Under international pressure, Israel recently authorized the limited entry of humanitarian aid.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), malnutrition rates in the Gaza strip reach “alarming levels”. “Malnutrition follows a dangerous trajectory in the Gaza Strip, marked by a peak in death in July,” the WHO said in a statement.
Some 2.4 million Palestinians have been besieged there since the start of the war launched by an attack on the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas on October 7, 2023 on Israeli soil.
