After days of mounting international pressure, Israel has agreed to increase the flow of aid into Gaza. The decision follows harrowing images from the besieged territory last week, showing severely malnourished children. Experts warn that far more is needed to reverse what has been described as a full-blown starvation crisis.
The Guardian’s William Christou spoke to Reged Ahmad from Jerusalem about whether this moment marks a turning point in the Israel-Gaza war. While the increase in aid is a step forward, analysts caution that the situation remains dire, with humanitarian needs far outstripping current supplies.
The international community continues to call for a ceasefire and unimpeded access for aid agencies. The coming days will be critical in determining whether this agreement leads to sustained relief or remains a temporary measure in a conflict that shows no signs of abating.
