There’re multiple calls on world leaders to intervene in Gaza after a UN commission concluded, for the first time, that genocide is being committed. More than 20 aid orgs have banded together and their statement is desperate 🧵 Their statement says : ‘As humanitarian leaders,  we have borne direct witness to the horrifying deaths and suffering of the people of Gaza. Our warnings have gone unheeded and thousands more lives are still at stake’ 🧵

It is absolutely farcical to try to peddle the view that foreign journalists are not entering Gaza because it’s ‘dangerous’. International journalists have been delib blocked from entering #Gaza by primarily #Israel who doesnt want them seeing the war crimes 🧵 Aided and abetted by #Egypt who refuse to let them enter through Rafah Crossing plus every other country with influence such as USA and UK who’re not kicking up an almighty fuss about the denial of independent access 🧵
