The humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip remains dire, even as more aid has entered the besieged territory in recent days. Aid is continuing to trickle into the territory via air drops, while on Wednesday Israel reopened the only border crossing into northern Gaza for aid. Humanitarian groups had been urging Israeli authorities to let supplies enter via the Erez crossing for months. The UN has warned repeatedly that Gazans are desperately short of food and other essential supplies, with northern Gaza in particular on the brink of famine.
DW speaks to British surgeon Dr. Khaled Dawas, who has just returned from his second visit to Gaza since the war started. He has been working with emergency medical teams from the International Rescue Committee and Medical Aid for Palestinians.
