The flood of people arriving in south Gaza after Israel told them on Friday to leave an area in the north has stretched resources that were already strained to breaking point. "I was looking for basic food, eggs, rice, canned food, even milk for the children and I couldn’t find them," said Khan Younis resident, giving only her nickname of Um Salem."This is how Israel is fighting us, through starvation of our children. They either kill children by bombs or soon by starvation."
The Hamas assault last week killed more than 1,300 Israelis. The fighters also took scores of hostages in the worst breach of Israel's defences since its creation in 1948.Without the option of crossing the border into Egypt, more of Gaza's population has been cramming into the south seeking shelter, as Israel builds up troops and tanks on border. Israel has already launched raids.
U.S. President Joe Biden said on Friday he was making it a priority to address the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, working with Israel, Egypt, Jordan, other Arab states and the U.N. He said he was also ensuring Israel had what it needed to respond to the Oct. 7 attack, including bringing any U.S. hostages home.
