Is Gaza receiving aid?

Asked 10 hours ago

Answer

Gaza is receiving some aid through convoys and airdrops, but deliveries are slow, dangerous, and insufficient. Aid is often delayed at checkpoints, distribution is chaotic, and many residents risk their lives to access food. Humanitarian groups warn that current efforts fall far short of preventing mass starvation.
