In a shocking revelation, Chris Gunnness, a former spokesperson for UNRWA, has condemned Israel’s actions in Gaza as a calculated genocide disguised as a military operation against Hamas. Speaking from London, Gunnness described the dire conditions facing 2.3 million Palestinians, who are effectively trapped in what he characterized as a “Nazi-style concentration camp.” He emphasized that the blockade, ongoing since 2007, has led to unimaginable suffering, with civilians starving and being shot while seeking essential food aid.

Gunnness did not shy away from using stark language, referring to aid distribution sites as “human abattoirs,” where desperate civilians are met with violence instead of assistance. He criticized the international community, particularly Western governments, for enabling Israel’s actions while ignoring the humanitarian crisis unfolding before their eyes. “This is a genocide,” he asserted, calling for an urgent restoration of UN aid to Gaza and the return of professional humanitarian organizations to the region.

The former UN official pointed out that the very mechanisms intended to prevent aid diversion to Hamas have failed, with armed militants reportedly seizing aid meant for starving civilians. “We need to come to our senses,” he urged, advocating for a return to UN-led operations that have historically provided effective aid distribution without interference.

As the death toll continues to rise, with nearly 1,000 civilians killed in just six weeks, the urgency for action has never been greater. Gunnness’s impassioned plea highlights the critical need for the international community to reassess its role and responsibility in Gaza, demanding immediate intervention to prevent further atrocities. The world is watching—will it act before it’s too late?
