The ongoing conflict in Gaza remains dire, as Israeli airstrikes killed at least 21 people, most of whom were women and children. The humanitarian situation is worsening with Gaza facing the threat of famine due to Israel's blockade and a persistent military offensive.
Human rights organizations have expressed deep concern as lawlessness and violence disrupt aid efforts. More than 1,000 Palestinians have died since May while attempting to obtain food, according to the U.N.
A letter from 109 charities and human rights groups urgently calls for increased aid and a ceasefire, warning that restrictions are exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in the territory.
