Gaza’s hungry, thirsty and traumatised residents ‘in survival mode’

Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “Gaza’s hungry, thirsty and traumatised residents ‘in survival mode’” – below is their description.

Desperate crowds have been scrambling for aid at the Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt.

Palestinians tried to stop aid trucks, searching for food and other supplies.

The crossing is the main route for relief deliveries.

Communications have been repeatedly cut in Gaza – further complicating the distribution of basic goods.

That’s as the humanitarian situation inside the strip is worsening by the day.

Palestinians have been standing in long food queues in Rafah, to receive small amounts of aid.

The UN Food Programme says around half of Gaza’s population is starving.

Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud has more on the deteriorating conditions in Rafah.
