Live footage from the Rafah crossing in Gaza shows a large group of people jumping onto an aid truck to secure supplies.

Individuals can be seen tossing aid boxes out of the truck and into the waiting crowds below.

The Rafah crossing is located in the southern part of Gaza bordering Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.

The UN has been warning that people in Gaza have become so “desperate for food” that they are stopping aid trucks and immediately eating what they find.

The deputy head of the UN World Food Programme on Thursday also confirmed that about half of all people in Gaza “are starving”, with no idea where their next meal is coming from.

Al Jazeera's Hani Mahmoud is in Rafah in southern Gaza for the latest developments.
