Highlights: A sharp decline in the entry of aid trucks through the Kerem Shalom crossing. This comes as human rights organizations warn of a systematic Israeli plan to starve the residents of the Gaza Strip. Israel uses this crossing as a tool of collective punishment and starvation of the residents, they say. The health system, which has become an Israeli target, has also become a target, they add. The Gaza Strip has been in a state of conflict with Israel since the start of the Palestinian uprising in June 2007.

Al Jazeera's correspondent monitored a limited and slow movement of trucks loaded with humanitarian aid through the Kerem Shalom commercial crossing in the southern Gaza Strip.
