Israeli strikes kill several in Gaza as UN food aid cuts loom
An Israeli drone strike killed one Palestinian in Nuseirat camp and another wounded 13 in Gaza City, medical sources and the Palestine Red Crescent said, after four people including a 17-year-old girl were reported killed in 24 hours. UN funding shortages will leave half a million people without food assistance, Middle East Eye reported. Israel's military said it killed a Hamas militant involved in planning the killing of four soldiers in 2025.
Why it matters
Aid cuts and continued strikes raise the risk of renewed famine for Gaza's displaced population.
Background
War in Gaza began after the Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. Despite ceasefire arrangements, strikes and shortages of food and medicine have continued.
