I wonder if South Africa will update the ICC or ICJ on this..................:-) Doubt it but that's ok, Israel will.

 

No famine in Gaza, previous assumptions were wrong, though risk remains, key report by UN-linked group finds

There is currently no famine in Gaza, a new report by the key Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) organization has found, despite predicting in March that a full-blown famine would break out in the territory between March and July 2024.
The new study says that assumptions about the amount of food that would enter the territory turned out to be wrong, and that the supply of food to Gaza increased instead of decreasing during recent months.
“In this context, the available evidence does not indicate that famine is currently occurring,” the report finds.

The Gaza Famine That Never Was

"This is a decisive rebuke to malicious claims that Israel was using starvation as a weapon of war against the people of Gaza," David Adesnik, a senior fellow and director of research at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies think tank, said in a statement on the IPC’s latest report. "After months of hearing that Israel was blocking the delivery of sufficient aid to Gaza, we now see that Israeli authorities facilitated a massive increase in shipments of both aid and commercial goods, alleviating shortages in Gaza while Israeli forces continued to prosecute the war against Hamas."

Poof, there goes a 350 million dollar grift which was supposed to help get aid.

"US-built pier will be put back in Gaza for several days to move aid, then permanently removed"

 

IMO never supposed to actually make a difference, as it couldn't handle enough to make a difference. I think it was Biden wanting to say that he was doing something to bring aid in, though he could have forced israel to allow the hundreds of trucks waiting outside Gaza to enter.

 

Now that he's probably a dead duck in November, no need to keep up the pretense.
