Israel's new humanitarian measures for Gaza, including daily pauses and aid drops, are insufficient, according to aid workers. The blockade remains a major obstacle to addressing the escalating famine, with over 150 Palestinians dying of hunger. While Israel claims increased aid truck access, the number falls far short of the UN's requirements. Aid agencies cite new bureaucratic hurdles, including a registration process demanding staff details, further hindering aid delivery. The situation on the ground shows little improvement, with malnutrition widespread and medical supplies critically low.
