Israel Rejects "Biased" Warning of Famine in Gaza
(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - Israel rejected on Saturday a warning on Friday by the independent Famine Review Committee, a group of global food security experts, who said there was a "strong likelihood" of imminent famine in parts of northern Gaza, as the military let in aid trucks in areas cut off by fighting. "Unfortunately, the researchers continue to rely on partial, biased data and superficial sources with vested interests," the IDF said. On Saturday, the IDF said it had delivered 11 humanitarian aid trucks to Jabalia and Beit Hanoun in northern Gaza two days earlier. In the past month, aid has continuously reached other areas of northern Gaza, including Gaza City, the IDF said.
