The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) says today’s findings of famine in northern Gaza must push United States President Donald Trump and the US Congress to end Washington’s unwavering support for Israel, Al Jazeera.

“This famine is not a natural disaster — it is the intended outcome of Israel’s brutal blockade, targeted destruction of food systems, and systematic obstruction of humanitarian aid. For months, international aid organisations have sounded the alarm,” CAIR wrote on X.

The advocacy group described the famine in Gaza as “Israeli-made and US-backed”.
