UN says Israel has eased some restrictions in Gaza, allowing 100 truckloads of aid to be collected, but warns the amount is not enough to “stave off famine and a catastrophic health crisis”.
Authorities in Gaza say six more Palestinians, including two children, have starved to death, bringing the total toll from hunger to 133 since Israel’s war began.
Israeli forces have killed 63 people in Gaza, despite announcing plans for what it called daily humanitarian pauses to allow aid in. The victims included 34 aid seekers.
Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 59,733 people and wounded 144,477. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led October 7, 2023, attacks, and more than 200 were taken captive.
