Tens of thousands of Palestinians in northern Gaza are struggling to find food as virtually no supplies have been allowed into the area for the past month. Many are rationing their last lentils and flour to survive, while others risk their lives searching for food in the rubble of destroyed homes. The situation is dire, with thousands of children suffering from malnutrition and hunger spiraling to dire proportions. The US has called on Israel to allow a minimum of 350 trucks a day carrying food and other supplies into Gaza, but Israel has fallen far short of this target.
