France's Recognition of Palestine

Gaza Ceasefire Negotiations


From July 25, foreign countries can deliver humanitarian aid to Gas This was stated by a senior representative of the World Central Kitchen organization in a comment to Sky News.

"From now on, Israel will allow foreign countries to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza via parachutes. This afternoon, the WCK organization began to resume operations of its kitchens," he stressed.

It is known that the humanitarian organization World Central Kitchen suspended its activities in Gaza after several of its employees were killed in an Israeli airstrike last year.

Meanwhile, the Gaza Health Ministry said nine people had died of malnutrition in the past 24 hours, bringing the total number of deaths in the region due to food shortages to 122 since the start of the war, including 83 children.

The UN also warned today that Gaza is running out of special medicines for children suffering from malnutrition.

Israel, for its part, denies there is a food shortage in Gaza, despite more than 100 aid agencies warning of mass starvation in Gaza earlier this week. Israel has said it has had to take control of the supply and distribution of humanitarian aid because Hamas militants have been stealing it and not giving it to civilians. Hamas, however, denies this, as do other aid agencies, including USAID.
