🧵Starvation & famine in Gaza is a lie (Part 3): UNRWA confirms entry of 11,360 food trucks matching COGAT numbers. UN WFP confirms busy food markets in Gaza even publishing food prices! UN's own data contradicts “intentional starvation” and famine. See sources & analysis: 1/9
COGAT published on March 22 a chart showing food trucks entering Gaza since start of war at 11,065 matching UNRWA's 11,360. Israel is not lying as often claimed. Tons of food since 10/7 is double the amount the UN WFP itself says is necessary to meet basic needs of Gazans. 2/
UNRWA website shows daily data for trucks entering Gaza, number of pallets, food (cheese, butter, corn, flour etc.) Small sample below; excel file has 136 rows of 2,733 pallets for one day. UN itself confirms widespread entry of all manner of food. 3/ tinyurl.com/46f5demj
This is just recent right? Only after world forced Israel to let in more food? No. Daily data for months shows more trucks into Gaza daily since 10/7 than pre-war. Here is sample data for Jan 31 (out of 161 rows of 3,333 pallets). Despite UN’s own data, famine lie continues. 4/
But no one can get food, right? Wrong. UN WFP actually issued a report in March showing the prices of food in Gaza. Food for sale – meaning it’s not a famine. WFP has been saying a famine is “imminent” for 5 months, now said supposed to happen by May. 5/ wfp.org/publications/2…
It should all be free and probably lots is, but Hamas & others steal aid and sell it. UN WFP says 1 Kg of potatoes goes for $2 and 50 Kg of flour for $50. Prices are dropping, see video. But lie continues that Israel is intentionally starving Gazans. 6/
So UNRWA confirms Israel’s stated numbers of food trucks; WFP’s own data confirms Israel has allowed in 2x food it says Gazans need since 10/7; WFP issues a price list for food markets. What else? Actual video evidence. See below. 7/
Here is earlier Part 1 thread evidencing that starvation & famine in Gaza is a lie, by showing that based on UN WFP’s own statistics, Israel has provided 2x the food necessary for Gaza since 10/7 and 5x recently. 8/
Here is earlier Part 2 thread evidencing that starvation & famine in Gaza is a lie, by showing that UN WFP’s own report admits famine is not present and only imminent by May in north & July in south. It has been imminent for months! END
🧵UN's own data debunks another libel against Israel: unprecedented destruction in Gaza claimed at >60%. But March 20 report says only 19% of Gaza buildings destroyed or severely damaged, far less than fake data pushed by NGOs & media to imply Israeli crimes. See analysis: 1/12
UN report shows 12% of buildings are destroyed, 7% “severely damaged.” 16% are “moderately damaged”; UNOSAT defines this term as a building with “minimal visible damage” – that’s right, the building appears mostly fine. So 19% of Gaza buildings are badly damaged or destroyed. 2/
UNOSAT data is scientific via high resolution satellite images & uniform analysis (see link to report); not like subjective comments on Israel by UN "experts" or via Gaza “Ministry of Health.” UNOSAT data has assessed many conflicts e.g. Raqqa. 3/ unosat.org/products/3804
🧵Starvation & famine in Gaza is a lie: According to UN World Food Programme's own statistics Israel has delivered double the food necessary to feed all Gaza over 170 days of war. Claiming Intentional famine is a lie (like @repAOC) proven by UN’s own metrics. See analysis: 1/11
WFP issued an emergency response report for Gaza in October and specifically noted that 951 metric tons of food can feed 488,000 people for a week. See link for the WFP report and key deta from their report below. 2/ reliefweb.int/report/occupie…
Israel has facilitated delivery of 233,530 tons of food since the war began via 11,065 trucks. It is well documented that Hamas steals aid, but as proven next, the food entering over the whole war is twice the amount needed to meet basic food needs of all Gazans daily. 3/
🧵Starvation & famine in Gaza is a lie. UN NGO even admitted it yesterday! After months of claiming Israel is starving Gaza on purpose and months of calling famine “imminent” it is now only supposedly happening end of May & July! Here is the Gaza starvation lie exposed: 1/15
Since the beginning of the war Israel has facilitated the entry of 222,580 tons of food into Gaza – that means 1.22 lb/0.55 kg of food per person per day for 165 days of war for every person Gaza. Yet the blood libel of intentional starvation persists. 2/
Yesterday, 3.3 lb/1.5 Kg per person of food entered Gaza, yet @volker_turk says Israel may be using starvation as method of war. It’s obvious no matter what Israel does the Hamas shills at the UN will claim this blood libel. 3/
🧵Luxury Hamad towers in Gaza, below, is a microcosm of the entire Gaza war: massive int'l aid pouring in, Gaza is actually a modern urban enclave, Hamas exploitation of civilian Gaza for war, careful IDF action within rules of war & tragic destruction. Overview & analysis: 1/9
Hamad towers near Khan Younes consists of about 60 5-story buildings with ~3,000 apartments initiated & funded by Qatar in 2016 with over $200 million in donated costs. The towers were built & inhabited in phases as part of a new luxury neighborhood. 2/ gulf-times.com/story/557266/w…
Below is a luxury wedding dress shop housed in retail section of towers. Parks, high end mosques, etc. Sudanis, Yemenis & Afghanis could only dream of this. Didn't you know they have these in open air prisons? Enjoy the whole video about this shop. 3/
🧵Extent of Hamas exploitation of civilian Gaza is deeper than anticipated. Hamas' battle strategy explains massive destruction in Gaza. Here are key aspects of strategy which forces IDF to act with destructive force (much based on this article). 1/10 ynet.co.il/news/article/y…
Many 1000s of civilian apartments & houses were prepared in advance with weapons from light arms to anti-tank missiles. Hamas operatives, dressed as civilians, enter these homes and fire at Israeli forces using these pre-stored weapons. IDF of course fires at these buildings. 2/
Hamas built strategic and long combat tunnels under crowded urban areas, IDF has shown images of many of these tunnels. Explosives required to destroy the tunnels collapses many of the above buildings. 160km of tunnels are estimated in Khan Younes alone. 3/
🧵Gaza Casualty Update: Hamas & UN mouthpiece report 30,960 fatalities on Mar 9. IDF estimate of Hamas killed at 13,300. Overall civilian/combatant ratio remains very low at 1.3:1. New evidence of Hamas lies uncovered. See updates, new analysis & sources: 1/6
On Feb 29 IDF said ~13,000 combatants killed in Gaza. Daily reports since then show ~30 killed/day so add ~300 for ~13,300 today. Add 1,609 killed inside Israel 10/7-10/8 (recently confirmed) 2,000+ captured and ~10,000 injured = 27,000 neutralized. 2/ mako.co.il/news-military/…
Critical new analysis by @adiwyner Professor of Statistics & Data Science at UPenn. Uses statistical analysis to show Hamas faked casualties. It’s not easy to create fake numbers that appear real; analysis can uncover the deception. See full article. 3/ tabletmag.com/sections/news/…
