Bidu's mayor called on the United Nations to end the siege of the town northwest of Jerusalem, the Ma'an news agency reported. He stressed that the blockade continues to create critical shortages of medicine and infant formula for residents.
The appeal comes as the municipality faces mounting pressure from the ongoing siege, which has left the population without essential supplies.
