• Gaza is suffering an inhumane siege by the Government of Benjamin Netanyahu due to Hamas's attack on Israel, causing deaths by malnutrition.
• The U.S. and Jordan have dropped food by parachute to the Palestinian civilian population and have announced the construction of a provisional port in Gaza, while the European Union is planning the opening of a maritime corridor.
• There is a pressing need for a ceasefire and emergency measures to supply the lack of water and food.
• Israel, having control over the arrival of aid, can regulate or even stop the entry of food, medicine and other essential goods.
• Negotiations for a ceasefire are stagnated. Meanwhile, the Palestinian civilian population continues to die.

Conclusion: The provisional port and the maritime corridor would not be necessary if Netanyahu authorized the opening of the land crossings that have been functioning regularly and stopped the disproportionate military operation in Gaza.
