The situation is bad for everyone, not just me. If there is food I eat, if there is no food I remain without food. We hope that you will help us. We are very tired of the situation we are in, and we are bored. I also suffer from pregnancy pressure, from the sun, pregnancy pressure, I cannot stand, I am talking to you and it is likely that my blood pressure will drop.”

Food is very scarce, and you see the chaos. They come from outside the camp and cause a huge mess. This is despite the siege and hunger. Everyone is in need. We need more support for the camp, to suffice for those living inside and outside the camp. I swear to God I haven’t received anything, and I live inside the camp.”

STORYLINE:
A soup kitchen distributed food in a Gaza City tent camp on Saturday as Palestinians struggle to get meals amid Israel’s ongoing blockade and military operation.
Palestinians across the Gaza Strip have become increasingly desperate as nearly three months of Israeli border closures have pushed the territory to the brink of famine.
The hot soup distributed on Saturday was not enough to feed everyone who came whether from inside or outside the camp as people crowded the collection point.
"Food is very scarce, and you see the chaos," Mohammad Misleh, a father of seven living in the camp, told The Associated Press.
another resident, Hala al-Misri, said she was five months pregnant and sometimes having to go without meals.
She said her pregnancy was being made more difficult by having to stand in the sun for extended periods.
Separately, another 11 Palestinians were killed overnight near food distribution points run by an Israeli- and U.S.-supported humanitarian group in the latest of almost daily shootings near the sites since they opened last month.
