Famine looms in Gaza and strikes kill at least 30 Palestinians, but EU states remain divided over how to tackle Israel.

The European Union is seeking updates and more action from Israel on implementing a new deal to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza.

The U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's aid distribution system faces opposition from Hamas and criticism from the U.N. and NGOs despite delivering millions of meals to Gazans.

The strike damaged the Holy Family Church, the only Catholic Church in Gaza. The Israeli Defense Forces said it was looking into the matter.

The GHF aid distribution scheme was established after Israel partially lifted its blockade of aid supplies into Gaza. It established four sites - called "Safe Distribution Centres (SDS)" - on the strip. Three were located in the south, near Rafah, and one in central Gaza.

A new NCRI study found major U.S. and European media outlets echoed Hamas-linked narratives, downplaying terror ties and distorting facts about Gaza aid efforts.

Reacting to the new GHF flag system, Ibrahiem Mohammed Abdul Raouf Al Qatrawi, a 22-year-old Palestinian, called for the total cancellation of the GHF aid system, telling ABC News on Monday that "respect and dignity" should be restored.

American private military contractors used dangerous crowd control tactics on a crowd of Palestinian aid seekers in Gaza on Wednesday, witnesses say, causing a deadly stampede and adding to the nearly 1,000 Palestinians who have been killed in relation to the U.S.- and Israeli-backed “humanitarian aid” scheme thus far.
