Facing mounting international condemnation over widespread hunger and reports of starvation in Gaza, Israel has announced daily 'tactical pauses' in military operations in several areas to allow more humanitarian aid to enter the enclave. The Israeli military will halt fighting for 10 hours each day in key population centers and establish secure routes for aid convoys, while Jordan and the UAE have begun airdropping supplies. Despite these measures, aid agencies warn that the limited pauses and airdrops are insufficient to address the scale of the crisis, with many Gazans still dying from hunger and aid distribution hampered by logistical and political obstacles. Israel's move comes as it seeks to deflect blame and avoid potential sanctions, but critics argue that only a significant increase in aid and a sustained ceasefire can prevent further catastrophe. The situation remains dire, with ongoing disputes over responsibility and the effectiveness of the new aid measures.
