The UN has issued warnings about the desperate humanitarian situation in Gaza as attempts to get aid to Palestinians continue.

"Gaza is the hungriest place on Earth," said Jens Laerke, spokesman for the UN humanitarian agency OCHA.

“This limited number of truckloads that are coming is a trickle, drip-feeding food into an area on verge of catastrophic hunger – it’s not a flood.”

“And the aid operation that we have ready to roll is being put in an operational straitjacket that makes it one of the most obstructed aid operations not only in the world today but in recent history," Laerke added.
