Famine is "playing out" in the Gaza Strip, a global hunger monitor said in an alert issued on Tuesday as international criticism of Israel intensifies over rapidly worsening conditions in the Palestinian enclave.

Benjamin Netanyahu has a three-month window to secure the release of the remaining Israeli hostages from Hamas and “finish the war in Gaza”, political analysts have said, amid global condemnations of the worsening starvation crisis in the territory.

Israel's military offensive on the Gaza Strip has killed at least 60,000 Palestinians since Oct. 7, 2023, the enclave's health ministry said, a conflict that has devastated the coastal territory and triggered a humanitarian crisis.

Accompanying the ongoing physical combat is an "information warfare" being fought on both sides, with influences often hidden to news consumers.

For decades, countless U.S. officials have proclaimed that the bonds between the United States and Israel are unbreakable. Now, the two countries function as accomplices while methodical killing continues in Gaza, with both societies directly — and differently — making it all possible.

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) -United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Monday said that Israel's creeping annexation of the West Bank is illegal and the wholesale destruction of the Gaza Strip is intolerable and both must stop.

Tuesday’s alert by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification follows an outcry over images of emaciated children in Gaza and reports of dozens of hunger-related deaths.

Jordan announced it had conducted three airdrops over the skies of Gaza on Sunday, including one in cooperation with the United Arab Emirates (UAE). View on euronews
