Repeat after me: FORCED FAMINE IS GENOCIDE!
I am reminded of the Ukrainian Holodomor:
"In the case of the Holodomor, this was the first genocide that was methodically planned out and perpetrated by depriving the very people who were producers of food of their nourishment (for survival). What is especially horrific is that the withholding of food was used as a weapon of genocide and that it was done in a region of the world known as the ‘breadbasket of Europe’.” – Prof. Andrea Graziosi, University of Naples.

Bakeries in the Gaza Strip shuttered Tuesday after running out of flour and diesel to operate, as a month-long Israeli blockade on food and aid entering the territory remains in place.
Abdel Nasser Al-Ajrami, head of the Bakery Owners Association in the Gaza Strip, said the closure of remaining 19 bakeries — which relied on support from the World Food Program (WFP) — meant there were no more operating bakeries in the territory.
"We call on the world to pressure the [Israeli] occupation to open the crossings to prevent the famine from worsening in the Strip," Al-Ajrami said in a statement.](https://friendica.hellquist.eu/photo/preview/640/4822532 "World
