He said in the besieged northern Gaza, fodder, feeding donkeys and horses became the main means of survival for people.

Bushra Khalidi told Qatar-based media Al Jazeera, "People are not alive, people are dying of hunger since the beginning of the war." We are talking about levels of destruction, which were not even a few months ago.'

'I don't know how people will live. They will die of starvation or massacre.'

For the past 10 days, Israeli forces have blocked all access to food in northern Gaza.

He made this comment in such a situation. He termed the decision as 'unacceptable'.
