1. Various of air drops of aid
STORYLINE:
Humanitarian aid continued to be airdropped on Monday in central and southern Gaza, as both aid groups and Palestinians say the changes have only been incremental.
Hunger has grown throughout the past 22 months of war because of aid restrictions, humanitarian workers say.
But food experts warned earlier this week the “worst-case scenario of famine is currently playing out in Gaza.”
Israel enforced a complete blockade on food and other supplies for 2½ months beginning in March.
It said its objective was to increase pressure on Hamas to release dozens of hostages it has held since its attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
Though the flow of aid resumed in May, the amount is a fraction of what aid organizations say is needed.
A breakdown of law and order has also made it nearly impossible to safely deliver food.
