Dozens of U.N. food trucks were blocked and offloaded by Palestinians in the Gaza Strip as desperation mounts following Israel's monthslong blockade, while talks of a ceasefire inch forward.
The U.N. Food Program said Saturday that 77 trucks carrying aid, mostly flour, were stopped by hungry people who took the food before the trucks were able to reach their destination.
"After nearly 80 days of total blockade, communities are starving – and they are no longer willing to watch food pass them by," the WFP said in a statement. "This delivery is a start, but it's not nearly enough."
