Global Protests Demand UN Action Amid Gaza Starvation Crisis

A global outcry has intensified over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where starvation and lack of medical supplies have led to hundreds of deaths, including many children. Hundreds of rabbis worldwide condemned Israel's use of starvation as a weapon of war, urging an end to the blockade and fighting while affirming support for Israel's security concerns. Pro-Palestine protests have taken place internationally, from Jakarta to London, Milan, and New York, with demonstrators demanding immediate humanitarian aid access and political pressure to end the siege. The World Health Organization has labeled the crisis as "man-made mass starvation," urging the global community to act beyond words. At the United Nations headquarters, protesters criticized the UN's inaction and called for sanctions against Israel, highlighting the perceived influence of the United States in blocking decisive measures. Calls for ceasefire, accountability, and cessation of arms supplies to Israel are growing amid fears of ethnic cleansing and a mounting death toll in Gaza.
