90% of children under the age of two in Gaza will go to bed hungry tonight. In the north, one in six is acutely malnourished. We must have a #CeasefireNow , or this situation will only continue to worsen – with grave consequences for a generation of children. Please RT.

Twelve Palestinians have drowned after attempting to collect airdropped aid that fell into the sea off the coast of Gaza. Airdrops will not end famine and are a dangerous proposed ‘solution’. Starvation is being used as weapon of war. Take action now:
