Israeli strikes killed at least 33 Palestinians in Gaza on Saturday, including people sheltering in tents or seeking scarce food, local hospitals said.

Palestinians in Gaza’s main city, emaciated and facing the threat of yet another displacement, accuse Israel — which rejects the UN’s findings — of deceiving the world with its ‘propaganda’

Palestinians sheltering in tents or seeking food were among at least 33 people killed by Israeli strikes and shootings in Gaza, medics said yesterday, as they struggled to deal with the famine that now grips the Gaza Strip’s largest city.

"An entire population is being pushed into starvation, destitution, and death,” said Belgium's Deputy Prime Minister.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned that Gaza city could "turn into Rafah and Beit Hanoun" unless Hamas agrees to Israel's terms.

Israel says "there is no famine in Gaza" after the IPC reports more than 500,000 people in the Strip are facing "starvation, destitution and death".
