The U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation operates four sites providing food boxes with 2,400 daily calories, while facing criticism from the U.N. and several American allies.

Since Israel’s offensive led to a security breakdown in Gaza that has made it nearly impossible to safely deliver food to starving Palestinians, much of the limited aid entering is being hoarded by gangs and merchants and sold at exorbitant prices.

Plus, some Republican lawmakers are pushing for legislation to end "weather modification," pushing a fringe theory that humans are controlling the weather into the mainstream.

Despite being thousands of miles away from Gaza, North Texans have been mobilizing for months, helping get humanitarian aid to those who need it most.

"President Trump wants to alleviate suffering for the people of Gaza because he has a humanitarian heart. He announced a new aid plan today to help Gazans obtain crucial access to food – details are forthcoming," White House deputy press secretary Anna Kelly said in a comment to ABC News.

The president described the food crisis in the enclave as a “terrible situation,” and said the U.S. would set up food centers and fund the effort along with European nations.

JERUSALEM/GAZA, July 27 (Reuters) - Israel on Sunday announced a halt in military operations for 10 hours a day in parts of Gaza and new aid corridors as Jordan and the United Arab Emirates airdropped supplies into the enclave, where images of starving Palestinians have alarmed the world.

The European Union plans to reduce a major package of financial support to Ukraine by €1.5 billion ($1.7 billion) after Kyiv said it had been unable to meet all required reform milestones, said a spokesperson of the bloc’s executive.
