Palestinian activist Mansour Shouman has said the situation in Gaza is getting worse.
“In the north, there is famine right now. I had a friend text me saying, ‘We are eating the extract of the leaves of the trees just in order to provide us with nutrients,’” Shouman told Al Jazeera.
“All they have up north is flour that is coming in through, the very little residual aid that has been left off the American pier that is coming through land crossing points in the north.”
Shouman called for the land crossings to open as soon as possible to allow the thousands of trucks full of aid from people who donated and from organisations worldwide to enter.
