Raise a Glass to Malbec! Malbec World Day, April 17 | SaltWire #reels #shorts #wine #foodUNITED NATIONS - The United Nations is still struggling to prevent famine in the Gaza Strip and while there had been some improvement in coordination with Israel, aid deliveries in the enclave still faced difficulties, a senior U.N. aid official said on Tuesday.
"For every new opportunity that we've been given, we will find yet another challenge to deal with," he said."So it's really, really difficult for us to scale up to where we would like to be." Israel has since approved reopening the Erez crossing into northern Gaza and temporary use of Ashdod port in southern Israel after U.S. President Joe Biden demanded steps to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, saying conditions could be placed on U.S. support for Israel if it did not act.
"The problem is it's not just about food. The problem is that famine is much more complex ... it's much bigger than simply bringing in flour," he said."Water, sanitation and health are fundamental to curb famine."
