US EditionIsrael Says Opening Routes Into Gaza to Increase Food Aid
- Israel announced a tactical pause in military activity and resumed aid airdrops over parts of Gaza on Sunday amid a severe humanitarian crisis.
- The pause and aid delivery followed months of blockade and intensified fighting triggered by Hamas’ October 2023 attack that killed 1,219 people, mostly civilians.
- Designated secure routes will operate daily from 06:00 to 23:00 to allow UN and humanitarian convoys safe passage delivering food and medicine across Gaza.
- Nearly one in three Gazans do not eat for days, 90,000 women and children need urgent treatment, and aid groups warn airdrops will not reverse starvation.
- Despite resumed aid, reports suggest Gaza faces ongoing starvation and displacement, with Israeli officials blaming Hamas and international calls for increased ground convoys continuing.
