Dear [Elected Official’s Name],
Six months after Israel began blocking food, water, formula, sanitary products, and medical equipment, the UN-backed global hunger monitor, the IPC, has
declared Gaza City and the surrounding areas in
Phase 5 famine, the most severe level of food insecurity.
Conditions are spreading rapidly across the enclave.
“Famine is not only about food; it is the deliberate collapse of the systems needed for human survival. People are starving. Children are dying. And those with the duty to act are failing.” —
UN Secretary-General António Guterres.
Amnesty International has confirmed:
“This famine is the direct consequence of Israel’s deliberate campaign of starvation in Gaza. The deliberate obstruction of humanitarian aid, the destruction of life-sustaining infrastructure, and the direct killings of civilians are a clear manifestation of how Israel is inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about the physical destruction of Palestinians in Gaza as part of its ongoing genocide.”
You have a legal obligation to prevent genocide. Every credible human rights body has already stated the truth: Israel is committing genocide.
I urge you to:
- Impose full, comprehensive sanctions on Israel.
- Enforce a complete two-way trade embargo—ending all import and export activity with Israel.
- Immediately end all arms sales and intelligence cooperation.
- Ensure unimpeded access for aid and humanitarian organisations, and suspend GHF’s deadly “aid” sites.
Your Constituent,
