Norwegian Refugee Council: Israel stifling support for Palestinians

The Norwegian Refugee Council has recently raised concerns over the suffocating support for Palestinians in Gaza, as the UN agency for Palestinian refugees has decided to halt the delivery of aid through the Karem Abu Salem crossing. This decision has sparked outrage and frustration among humanitarian organizations working to assist the Palestinian community in the region.

With the closure of the crossing, essential aid including food, medical supplies, and other necessary resources are no longer able to reach those in need in Gaza. This has put further strain on an already dire situation, as the Palestinian population continues to face immense challenges and hardships.

The Norwegian Refugee Council has called for an immediate resolution to the blockade at the crossing, and for a swift return to providing vital assistance to Palestinians in Gaza. The organization emphasizes the importance of upholding humanitarian principles and ensuring that those in need receive the support they require to survive and thrive in such a difficult environment.

As the situation in Gaza continues to escalate, it is crucial for the international community to come together and support the Palestinian people in their time of need. The Norwegian Refugee Council’s stance on the issue highlights the urgency and complexity of the situation, and calls attention to the devastating impact that the closure of the Karem Abu Salem crossing is having on the lives of Palestinians in Gaza.
