Bar-Tal has presented an analysis of the report from the IPC, the UN-backed system for assessing famine risk. that reveals, according to the IPC’s own data, what the Foreign Ministry called “the gross falsifications committed” by the organisation in order to reach a political outcome that would serve the Hamas campaign, accusing Israel of causing starvation in Gaza.
If the report is not removed, Israel will contact donor countries with a request to stop funding the IPC.
Bar-Tal presented the analysis at a press conference held by the global media yesterday.
In addition, Bar-Tal revealed a letter that Israel sent to the IPC today, firmly demanding that the report be shelved.
Some of the falsifications cited by Bar-Tal included:
The IPC invented information that does not exist: They invented 182 virtual deaths to reach the threshold of 188, supposedly for starvation.
The IPC cherry-picked data: out of a survey of 15,749 children, they only took data from 7,519 children, which leads to the desired political result of the report’s authors.
IPC hid data that contradicts the agenda: The IPC conducted two surveys in Gaza – and hid in an appendix one of the surveys that shows there is no hunger in Gaza.
