Israeli air strikes hit humanitarian safe zones in Gaza
There was an air strike on Gaza City, and this is one of the areas that was designated as a safe area and where the Israeli forces are going to halt their military operations. According to Palestinians in that area, they said that a bakery where Palestinians were baking food was targeted.
There have also been reports that a number of Palestinians have been killed and others have been injured.
UN teams will do all they can to reach Gaza’s starving people, aid chief says
Reacting to Israel’s announcement of pauses in fighting in some areas of Gaza and secure routes for the entry of humanitarian aid, UN aid chief Tom Fletcher says the UN’s teams on the ground will use the opportunity to reach those in need.
“In contact with our teams on the ground who will do all we can to reach as many starving people as we can in this window,” Fletcher wrote in a social media post.

Flour trucks looted in Gaza City during aid deliveries
A couple of hours ago, just seven to 10 trucks filled with flour were allowed into the northern part of the Strip. Not all of the trucks made it to Gaza City. Hungry crowds surrounded them, and people who were desperate for one bag of flour and other basic necessities looted those trucks.
These trucks could not make it to the heart of the city, where the vast majority of displaced people are located. What’s really concerning now is that this only further complicates things on the ground, and it will further exacerbate high prices on the black market.
