Israel Must Be Held Accountable for Destruction in Gaza - Palestinian Ambassador
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced a daily "tactical pause" in military actions from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. (07:00-17:00 GMT) to allow humanitarian aid into the enclave.
On July 20, the Gazan ministry warned that it expected deaths in the enclave to surge amid continuing food shortages and lack of medical care. Multiple UN agencies have sounded alarm over the growing number of hunger-related deaths in the Gaza Strip.
