A "worst-case scenario of famine" is playing out in Gaza as access to food plummets to unprecedented lows, according to the IPC global hunger authority.

Access to food has plummeted to unprecedented levels, a monitoring group warned, as global outrage over Israel’s aid restrictions persisted.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres emphasized the urgent need for increased aid to the Gaza Strip. He warned that Gaza is on the brink of famine, with critical shortages of food, water, medicine, and fuel.

"In August and September, there are probably still going to be ... large numbers of deaths because children have already passed the tipping point," Mark Brauner, who volunteered in Gaza last month, told HuffPost.

The alert came as the total number of Palestinians killed since Israel launched its assault passed 60,000, the health ministry in the enclave said Tuesday.

Alongside our 113 colleagues working in Gaza, people of Gaza are struggling to survive in an environment where their fundamental right to life is directly targeted by Israel,’ says Anadolu - Anadolu A

Speaking in Scotland, Trump said that the U.S. would set up food centers in Gaza as “we have to get the kids fed,” NBC News’ Chantal Da Silva writes. Trump said he had seen images of Palestinians on TV and that “those children look very hungry.” He later added that the scenes were “real starvation” and that “you can’t fake that.”

Previous German aid-dropping operations in the territory may give a glimpse of what to expect, according to a defense spokesman in Berlin.
