International pressure over a looming famine forced Benjamin Netanyahu to announce on Sunday night that he would ease the devastating 11-week aid blockade to prevent a “starvation crisis” in Gaza – but only to a minimum level.

Fletcher said five trucks of aid went into Gaza yesterday, but described this as a “drop in the ocean” and totally inadequate for the population’s needs.

He said the aid lorries, which contain baby food and nutrition, are technically in Gaza but have not reached civilians as they are just on the other side of the border.

Remember what USA did in west Berlin? East Germany threatened to shoot down their cargo plane, but in the end, they weren't shot down... Just to deliver food.

Why can't Turkey, Arabia or Egypt do this? Because they profit from the genocide.
