Escalating Violence in Gaza Amid Humanitarian Crisis and Aid Control Controversy
Israeli airstrikes have intensified in Gaza, raising human toll as aid distribution plans face rejection from international organizations.
Summary
Israeli airstrikes have killed at least 23 Palestinians, including children, as the third month of the blockade on Gaza continues. This escalation coincides with international criticism of Israel's proposed control over aid distribution, which humanitarian organizations reject as politicization. The humanitarian situation remains dire, with significant shortages of food and essential supplies exacerbated by the ongoing conflict, which has resulted in over 52,800 Palestinian deaths and widespread devastation since it reignited in March. The U.N. and various aid groups emphasize the need for impartial humanitarian access as closures of charity kitchens loom.
