Scavenging for scraps: Palestinians risk gunfire to feed starving children

Gaza’s Palestinians face a harrowing dilemma—death by Israeli bombardment or starvation—as 56 were killed waiting for aid on Sunday while six others perished from hunger in 24 hours.
Desperate civilians scavenge for scraps under gunfire near the Netzarim corridor, with one resident lamenting, "We collect pasta from the ground to feed our children."
Aid distribution has become a lethal gamble, as crowds in Rafah and beyond brave Israeli fire, only to face what many call "humiliation, not help."
Attacks persist unabated, with displaced families sheltering in a Khan Younis UN school and a Red Crescent facility shelled by Israeli forces.
Over 60,000 dead have left survivors clinging to life, as one man explains: "We risk death just to ease our hunger."
Israel’s sporadic "humanitarian pauses" fail to alter the daily reality of a population systematically crushed by war and starvation.
