Urgent humanitarian intervention needed to address Gaza genocide

To: Rep. Courtney, Pres. Biden, Sen. Blumenthal, Sen. Murphy

July 8

The ongoing genocide in Gaza has caused immense suffering and loss of life, with estimates by The Lancet suggesting the death toll could be as high as 186,000 or more. This is a staggering figure that underscores the urgent need for a ceasefire and humanitarian intervention. Even if hostilities end immediately, the region will continue to grapple with the indirect consequences of war, such as lack of access to medical care, clean water, and other essential resources. The international community must take decisive action to halt the bloodshed and facilitate the distribution of aid to the besieged population. Ending military support and funding to Israel could serve as a powerful tool to ending the genocide perpetrated by the IDF and settlers. Simultaneously, reinstating funding for UNRWA, the United Nations agency responsible for providing vital services to Palestinian refugees, is crucial to addressing the mounting humanitarian crisis. The scale of suffering documented by credible sources like The Lancet demands an immediate response from global leaders. A failure to act will only perpetuate this catastrophe and further endanger innocent lives. Urgent diplomatic efforts must be undertaken to secure a lasting ceasefire and pave the way for a just resolution that upholds the rights and dignity of all people.
