80% of Gaza Destroyed, Livelihoods Lost

Many households are living in buildings at risk of collapse, severely threatening residents' safety.

The cumulative damage from the war is severe, with 1,400 people killed since October 10 following the ceasefire agreement.

Notably, an additional 1,400 people have died since October 10, 2025, after the ceasefire agreement, indicating a continuous increase in casualties.

Residents are enduring extremely poor conditions, using firewood due to gas shortages and living in damaged buildings or tents.

This further exacerbates the living environment of the Gaza Strip, which already had a high population density before the war.

According to Rami Abuzayammus, a year after the humanitarian committee was formed, Israel continues to block access and activities on the ground.

Discussions within the Israeli government about the forced or voluntary displacement of Gaza's population continue, drawing criticism that this is a policy of intentional suffering.

Analysis suggests that the poor conditions in displacement camps may be intended to provoke residents' desire to escape and encourage their migration.

Marie-José Sader, a journalist for France24, reported that unstable communication networks make on-site reporting very difficult, and contact is only possible via landlines instead of the internet.

Gaza residents can only charge their mobile phones for short periods each day, leading to prolonged disconnections when devices are off.

Jean-François Corty criticized that Palestinian residents are pushed to the brink of survival, with all conditions of life destroyed.

90% of the population suffers from severe sanitation and food shortages under plastic tents, and the destruction of water and sanitation facilities has plunged residents into a health crisis directly linked to survival.

The Israeli government's policies effectively obstruct humanitarian aid, leading to great difficulties in relief efforts.

Political uncertainties, such as former President Trump's population displacement plans, further instill despair among residents.

Most of them died in Israeli bombardments, demonstrating that aid workers are becoming direct targets of the war.

These remarks coincide with the election season in Israel, and the repeated mention of displacing Gaza residents by some government officials is interpreted as a political plan supporting genocidal intentions.

The Gaza Health Ministry reports 74,000 deaths to date, a figure acknowledged by the UN and Israeli military authorities.

However, the Israeli military's debris removal operations are criticized as acts of destroying evidence of war crimes, making it virtually impossible to ascertain the exact death toll.

With many bodies buried under the rubble, the actual number of fatalities is estimated to be much higher.

Israel emphasizes Hamas's disarmament as a precondition for reconstruction, making the feasibility of reconstruction plans uncertain.

The international community is preparing vast sums for reconstruction, but political deadlock is preventing any progress.

A significant number of people are expected to die due to the halt in chronic disease treatment and ongoing health crises, and mental health issues are also reaching severe levels.

The international community's coordinating functions have been paralyzed due to Israel's veto, and a peace process is absent.

Currently, the International Court of Justice is addressing Israel's alleged genocide, and the International Criminal Court has issued an arrest warrant for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for war crimes.

Nevertheless, democratic nations are evading political and legal responsibility, and European countries such as Germany are refusing to adjust their cooperative relations with Israel.

This demonstrates the reality of a lack of effective international sanctions, even as international legal judgments proceed.

In Israeli election campaigns, discussions of peace or a Palestinian state have vanished, replaced by extremism and fandom politics.

Young Israelis tend not to call Palestinians by name, simply referring to them as 'Arabs,' and cannot even imagine coexistence.

Furthermore, there's a tendency to believe that the horrors in Gaza are staged, which signifies a deepening dehumanization of Palestinians.

An extreme viewpoint based on the 'Grand Israel' ideology, aiming for a territory exclusively for Jews, is spreading.

Jean-François Corty criticized that with 70% of Gaza occupied by Israel, Palestinians have no prospect of a state or a normal life.

The healthcare system is inoperable due to continuous bombardment and military intervention, and accessibility is so cut off that medical teams take 6 hours to travel 25 km.

The international community is failing to fulfill its promised obligations, such as preventing genocide, further exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.

Jean-François Corty criticized French President Emmanuel Macron for making 'honorable' statements about the shame in Gaza, while the French Foreign Ministry presses NGOs by demanding financial reports and framing them as supporting terrorism.

The French government is investigating allegations of NGO terrorism funding, following Israeli rhetoric, and is also creating obstacles for international organizations, such as demanding the resignation of a UN special rapporteur, leaving aid organizations currently at risk of expulsion.
