Several countries, including Jordan, drop aid to Gaza. One in every 3 children under the age of 24 Shahra is now suffering from severe malnutrition, warning of a looming famine.

About 200 tons of food arrived in the Gaza Strip late yesterday, the first shipment to follow the new route to send aid. German Chancellor Olaf Schulz urged Israel today to allow humanitarian aid to reach Gaza on a larger scale, before the start of his two-day tour of the Middle East. He expressed his concern about the planned Israeli attack on the city of Rafah, south of Gaza, where more than half of Gaza's 2.3 million people are seeking refuge.
