Global Outrage as Israel Cuts Power to Gaza, Worsening Humanitarian Crisis

Israel’s decision to sever electricity to Gaza has drawn international condemnation. Hamas called it “blackmail,” while the Palestinian Authority labeled it an escalation of genocide. The UK urged Israel to restore power, warning of legal violations. Germany criticized the move as a humanitarian risk. UN expert Francesca Albanese warned it could worsen Gaza’s water crisis and lead to genocide. Critics argue the action deepens suffering in Gaza, which already faces severe shortages of food, medicine, and essential services.
