Gaza Humanitarian Crisis: Aid Slow to Reach Millions After Blockade Ends

Gaza Crisis Deepens: Aid Slow Despite Blockade Lift The humanitarian situation in Gaza is worsening despite Israel recently lifting its months-long blockade. The United Nations has voiced serious concerns, citing slow aid distribution and warning of a potential famine. Satellite imagery from the UN shows the devastating scale of the destruction, with more than two-thirds of buildings and 80% of farmland damaged or destroyed. This has left millions vulnerable, including 14,000 babies. "The aid is not reaching the people who need it most," said a UN spokesperson. Meanwhile, 23 Western countries have issued a joint statement demanding immediate access for aid organizations and an end to the ongoing violence. The images of children sifting through rubble and families struggling to survive paint a stark picture of the ongoing crisis.
