A newly released study constituted a challenge to the International Criminal Court (ICC) Investigation Among the demands of hunger against Israel and reveal the role of Hamas terrorism in controlling the distribution of aid.
Only last week, as a result of the terrorists' refusal to extend the ceasefire deal and start the launch of 59 hostages who are still detained in Gaza, the Israeli government decided to stop all the goods and supplies entering Gaza.
However, although the criticism of Tom Fletcher, head of instinct, who described the decision “anxiety”, the Trump administration gave its blessing to this step.
Retired Colonel Jonathan Conrigos, IDF spokesperson, has now rejected an older colleague at the Defense Defense Foundation, hunger demands, and Fox News Digit told Hamas while Israel included entering aid. He said: “I have arrived more than 25,200 trucks during the ceasefire – enough for four months. If there is hunger, then this is due to Hamas's corruption, not the lack of food.”
The study, published by Israeli public health experts, based on data from the coordinator of Israeli government activities in the regions (Cogat), challenges these claims, and does not show any evidence of famine or deliberate deprivation.

The study, named after “food supplied to Gaza within seven months of the Israeli war,” led by nutrition and public health experts Aaron Tarwin and Ronit Endelt, along with researchers from multiple Israeli universities and the Ministry of Health. The study analyzed food shipments in Gaza from January to July 2024.
Using the databases of international food formation and humanitarian standards, they tracked calories, nutritional value and humanitarian aid, which provides an objective analysis based on data for food supplies that are delivered to Gaza during the first seven months of the war.
The research evaluated food International donors shipments It was treated with Cogat. Each element is classified based on energy content, protein, fat and fine nutrient formation. Then the total diet of the individual was measured against international standards to ensure accuracy.

“We did not enter politics,” said Professor Ronit Endeelt. “We just wanted to know if the food is from a dietary perspective Enter Gaza It was enough. We have examined our data several times to avoid exaggeration. “
Between January and April 2024, 14,916 trucks carrying 227,854 tons of food entered Gaza, with an average of 124 dining trucks per day. The study found that the daily calorie supply for the individual amounted to 3,374 kaluri, with 101 grams of protein and 80.6 grams of fat – meeting or exceeding the standards of international humanitarian food aid.
In March 2024, United Nations The classification of integrated food security (IPC) has warned of an imminent famine in Gaza. Within a few days, the technical language gave cautious way to the headlines of the media and political data that claims that collective hunger is already ongoing, ”Professor Trueen told Fox News Digital.
“One of the most persistent lies was the claim that before the war, 500 or more humanitarian trucks entered Gaza daily, and that this number was necessary to meet the needs of the population. In fact, the number of food trucks was present or less than 100 per day before the war, and it has since increased.” “Our study aims to treat this gap by analyzing the checked food shipments. The numbers show that while there are differences, the ever has not decreased to a decrease in food supply to hunger levels.”

When asked specifically about the certificates obtained by the Fox News Digital who were reported to be struggling to find food on certain days, Endeelt admitted that the study did not follow the final distribution inside Gaza. “We cannot say that there was no hunger, but we can confirm enough food that was entered,” she said. “Most of the time, in most months, there was enough food available.”
The main result of the study is a distinction between food supply and distribution. Endeelt said: “Hamas systematically distributed food, using it as a control tool.” “Often the aid did not reach those in need because Hamas seized supplies, selling them on the black market, or gave the priorities of its fighters. Famine reports are not because of the lack of help, but the deliberate Hamas strategy to restrict access to strength and profit.”
Despite these results, the investigation of the International Criminal Court and Global Criticism continued. “IPC reports, which were widely martyred as a guide against Israel, have failed to mention Hamas's role in manipulating help,” Trueen said.
When asked by Fox News Digital whether the new results will be considered in their investigation, the International Criminal Court of the Public Prosecutor answered: “The Prosecutor's Prosecutor Office has current and continuous investigations regarding the situation in the state of Palestine. Office, including interviews with witnesses.

“The office cannot provide more information regarding the details of its investigative activities in response to your request at this stage. Confidentiality is an essential part of our work and it is necessary to protect the safety of investigations and ensure the safety and security of the victims and witnesses and everyone who interacts with the office with them.”
UN spokesman referred the Fox News Digital to the Integrated Food Security Classification (IPC), which asked for more time to respond. However, even after the extension was given, no response has been provided.

The study published challenges. “Given Anti -Israel bias In parts of the scientific community, we chose to submit to the Israeli magazine for health policy research, a magazine that was reviewed by peers under Nature Nature, “We have quickly wanted the data available to improve humanitarian efforts. However, the political climate made the review process unusually intense.”
“This was one of the most accurately reviewed studies that I have ever worked on,” added Endellet. “We had five auditors, much more than usual, and months of hidden reviews to ensure absolute accuracy.”
The research team, including experts from the Hebrew University, Ben Gurion University, Tel Aviv University and Haifa University, conducted a study with a commitment to scientific rigor. The paper, which has now been widely martyred, emphasizes the importance of transparent data in assessing humanitarian crises.

“There is one, clear thing: given the amount of food that enters Gaza and the ongoing reports on hunger, the distribution must be improved.” “Effective cooperation between United Nations agencies, chats, and Palestinian civil society, without Hamas intervention, is very important to ensure reaching those who need them.”
