US Promises Gaza Food Aid Plan After Envoy Visit, Amid Deaths
The US is working on a plan to send more food to people in Gaza.
A US representative, Steve Witkoff, went to Gaza to see how people are getting food.
Sadly, many people have been killed while trying to get food.
Some groups say that the Israeli military is hurting people who are trying to get aid.
The Israeli military said they are trying to make sure that food gets to people and that they will check into what happened.
US envoy promised a food aid plan after visiting a US-backed aid distribution center in Gaza.
A UN office reported over 1,373 Palestinians killed seeking aid since May 27.
Human Rights Watch accused Israeli forces of causing 'bloodbaths' near aid points.
GHF delivered its 100-millionth meal during the envoy's visit.
The Israeli military said they were reviewing the deaths and accused Hamas of preventing aid distribution.
