A US-based famine monitoring agency said the amount of humanitarian food supplies entering Gaza through crossings in the south were at their lowest levels in July since Israel’s war on the enclave began.

The Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) said that only 724 humanitarian trucks with food or mixed items entered through the Karem Abu Salem crossing in July. They carried roughly 5,035 to 5,566 metric tons of supplies, Al Jazeera reported.
