Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry says 33 people have died from malnutrition in the last 48 hours, including 12 children.

The joint statement comes as Palestinians face worsening starvation, daily massacres at "aid sites" and the ongoing blockade of humanitarian assistance.

The foreign ministers of 25 Western nations have slammed Israel for “drip feeding” aid into the Gaza Strip, as the health ministry in the territory said that more than 1,000 people have been killed seeking humanitarian relief there since late May.

The head of the agency that helps oversee international aid deliveries to the territory had criticized the impact of Israeli policy on civilians.

Abu Shabab even hinted at a future in politics: "We will be what our people want us to be. We will not impose any political system on their will."

In remarks on the House floor Thursday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) spoke about her amendment to stop funding for Israel's defense from being sent.

Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa entered Gaza on Friday to bring aid to victims of Israel's strike on the sole Catholic church in the Palestinian enclave, while he and a Vatican official questioned Israeli explanations for the incident.
