Today, we discuss the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where more than 100 international aid organisations say the population is facing mass starvation and call on Israel to allow access.

A number of news agencies including the 麻豆社 have released a statement calling for Israel to allow journalists in and out of Gaza, expressing concern for their journalists 鈥渨ho are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families.鈥�
