00:00French president Emmanuel Macron has called for an urgent ceasefire between
00:06Hamas and Israel as well as renewed humanitarian aid into Gaza. His trip to
00:13Egypt aims to emphasize the importance of establishing another ceasefire after
00:17the previous truce collapsed last month.
00:21The United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres has rejected a proposed
00:49Israeli plan to control aid into Gaza, which he said risks further controlling and
00:55callously limiting aid down to the last calorie.
00:58More than an entire month has passed without a drop of aid into Gaza. No food, no fuel, no
01:09medicine, no commercial supplies. As aid has dried up, the floodgates of order have reopened.
01:19Gaza is a killing field and civilians are in an endless death loop.
01:24Charity kitchens have been drawing bigger crowds of Palestinians because other sources of food
01:29are running out. More than a month ago, Israel cut off all food, fuel, medicine and other
01:35supplies to Gaza's population of more than two million, forcing aid groups to ration their
01:40stocks.
