More Than 100 Aid Groups Warn of Starvation in Gaza

Palestinians are being shot or trampled to death while attempting to access aid hubs in the region, yet no party seems to have plans to address the trend.
Israeli ground troops for the first time have pushed into areas of a central Gaza city where several aid groups are based.
Dozens of international humanitarian organizations warned Israel’s blockade of aid into Gaza is endangering the lives of doctors and aid workers, while a major news agency says it is trying to evacuate its remaining freelance journalists because the situation has become “untenable.
As Israel faces mounting pressure to end the Gaza war, a hospital director says the Palestinian enclave is facing "alarming numbers of deaths" from starvation.
Tens of Palestinians in Gaza City queued up in long lines around a soup kitchen with their pots, hoping to fill them up with whatever little they could get from the watery tomato soap that has little eggplant pieces in it.
The aid agency says its buildings in the central part of the territory were attacked after the military targeted Deir al-Balah, which had largely been spared.
The military says they "operate to the greatest extent possible to reduce harm to civilians and civilian infrastructure, including religious establishments"
