Gaza Aid Crisis: Blame Game Between Israel and the UN
Gaza is facing a hunger crisis, and Israel and the UN are arguing about why aid isn't reaching people.

The UN says Israel makes it hard to get to the trucks and move the aid with many rules, safety problems, and slow processes.
Aid groups say the main issue is the aid can't be moved around Gaza.
Israel and the US started a group to deliver aid directly, but others say this program has caused harm to people.
