U.S. group warns of humanitarian disaster in Gaza. news.xinhuanet.com >>GAZA, May 23 (Xinhua) -- A U.S. humanitarian group warned on Tuesday of a looming humanitarian disaster in the Gaza Strip due to Israel's siege and the West's cutoff of crucial aid. Mercy Corps warned at a news conference in Gaza City that the humanitarian and health situation in the Gaza Strip would further deteriorate if the political and economic blockades on the Palestinians continued. The group blamed the aid cutoff and border closings by Israel for the deepening crisis in the desert coastal strip, saying that the Israeli sealing of Gaza "significantly curtailed critical export revenues and imports of food and other goods." The group also stressed the necessity to take appropriate measures to confront what it described as a tragedy in the Gaza Strip and appealed to the international community to improve the situation. << More important is that the world's attention should be focussed on Iran which, according to the Zionist media, is instituting legislation to put identifying marks on non-Muslims.
