Health authorities in the Gaza Strip announced on the 29th that 81 people had died in the past 24 hours, bringing the death toll since fighting between Israeli forces and Hamas began to 30,035.
The number of deaths has exceeded 30,000, and there are concerns that it will rise further.
Middle Eastern satellite television station Al Jazeera reported that on the 29th, Israeli forces attacked people waiting for aid supplies in Gaza City, in the northern part of the region, resulting in many casualties.
The humanitarian situation in the area continues to deteriorate, and UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees), which provides assistance to residents, says that the amount of aid supplies brought into the area has been cut in half in February compared to January. It's clear.
In response to this situation, Reuters and the American news site Axios reported on the 28th that the US government is considering dropping aid supplies from the air over the area.
The supplies drop was carried out by the Jordanian Air Force on February 26th.
However, Axios also reported that U.S. government officials have pointed out that the amount that can be dropped from military aircraft is limited and that increasing delivery by land is a top priority.
Meanwhile, the outcome of negotiations between Israel and Hamas regarding a cessation of fighting and the release of hostages, which are being mediated by Qatar and others, remains uncertain.
