Muscat: Amnesty International urged international actors, especially the European Union (EU), to take decisive actions to stop Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip: Amnesty International called on all international actors, particularly the European Union (EU), to take serious steps to stop Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, whether through the use of military weapons or forced starvation policies that have rendered the Strip “completely foodless.”

According to Oman News Agency, Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard urged all relevant parties to pressure Israel to permit the entry of food, water, and medicine into the Gaza Strip. She also advocated for holding accountable those responsible for genocide and war crimes. Callamard highlighted the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza, based on her observations and field monitoring of the ongoing 19-month war of extermination, intensifying with Israel’s comprehensive blockade on the Palestinian Strip since 2 March 2025.

Callamard pointed out the “alarm bells” in the Gaza Strip due to the depletion of essential supplies, especially after Israel resumed its war of extermination last March. She stated, “We know that people are suffering from severe shortages of food, water, and medicine. The World Food Organization, the World Health Organization, and all other UN and humanitarian organizations are sounding the alarm: There is no more food in Gaza.”

Emphasizing the gravity of the situation, Callamard repeatedly stressed “there is no more food in Gaza,” describing the conditions across the Palestinian territory as “absolutely terrifying.” She further asserted that the situation in Gaza constitutes “genocide in plain sight.”
