Gaza health ministry says 127 have died of malnutrition, including dozens in past weeks

Israel Announces Daily Pauses in Parts of Gaza to Allow Aid for Hungry

JERUSALEM/CAIRO - Israel said on July 27 it would halt military operations each day for 10 hours in parts of Gaza and allow new aid corridors in the enclave, where images of hungry Palestinians have alarmed the world.

The military said it would cease activity in Al-Mawasi, Deir al-Balah and Gaza City from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. local time until further notice, areas where it had not renewed ground operations since March, when it resumed its Gaza offensive.

Designated secure routes for convoys delivering food and medicine will also be in place permanently from 6 a.m. until 11 p.m., the military said.

United Nations aid chief Tom Fletcher said aid workers would step up efforts to feed those who are starving during the pauses in the designated areas.

"Our teams on the ground will do all we can to reach as many starving people as we can in this window," he said in a post on X.
