Israeli air strikes hammered the Gaza Strip Monday after a week of violence that has killed more than 200 people, the large majority Palestinian, despite international calls for de-escalation.
“For people who have lost or fled their homes, one of the most pressing needs at the moment is food,” said WFP country director Samer AbdelJaber in a statement issued by the Rome-based agency.
