Gaza City, Palestinian Territories: US President Donald Trump warned Monday that the people of Gaza are facing "real starvation", as aid agencies sought to take advantage of an Israeli "tactical pause" in fighting to rush in food aid.
Speaking in Scotland after meeting Britain's leader, Trump contradicted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who had earlier dismissed fears of famine in Gaza as "Hamas propaganda."
Trump said the United States and its partners would help set up food centres to feed the more than two million Palestinians in Gaza facing what UN aid agencies warn is a deadly wave of hunger and malnutrition.
"We're going to be getting some good strong food, we can save a lot of people. I mean, some of those kids -- that's real starvation stuff," he told reporters at a news conference with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
"We have to help on a humanitarian basis before we do anything. We have to get the kids fed," Trump said.
