US President Donald Trump on Monday said he would help with aid efforts in the battered Gaza Strip, acknowledging that the enclave was showing signs of “real starvation" amid the raging conflict between Israel and Hamas.
“We’ll be helping with the food. We got a lot of food ourselves, and we are going to bring it over there. We are also going to make sure that they don’t have barriers stopping people. You can see some areas where people are screaming for the food there, and they won’t let them in as they have lines set up. We have to get rid of those lines," he told reporters in Scotland.
“We can save a lot of people. Some of the kids are… that’s real starvation. I see it, and you can’t fake that. We did some airdrops, and people are running for it. The Prime Minister (UK’s Keir Starmer) is going to help us," he added.
