Israel will begin allowing a limited amount of food into Gaza to prevent a hunger crisis, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office announced on Sunday. This comes just hours after Israel launched a new large-scale ground offensive in the territory.
The move follows warnings from international food crisis experts about the risk of famine in Gaza, which has been under a full aid blockade since March 2. Netanyahu said the Cabinet approved the decision to let in a “basic” level of food to support the population of over 2 million people.
He added that this step would help Israel continue its latest military campaign, which began Saturday. However, the timeline and method for delivering the aid were not immediately clarified. Netanyahu emphasized that the aid must not fall into the hands of Hamas and that Israel would work to prevent the group from controlling distribution.
Meanwhile, Israeli forces have started what they call an "extensive" new ground operation in Gaza.
