July 26 (UPI) -- Britain, France and Germany are calling for an immediate end to fighting in Gaza after dozens of people were killed over a 24-hour period in the Palestinian enclave.

At least 57 people died in Gaza, the Palestinian News Agency reported Saturday, including those killed by airstrikes carried out by the Israeli military.

An infant also died from starvation in Gaza, with aid to the territory largely halted.

On Friday, Israel said it would give permission to the United Arab Emirates and Jordan to drop aid into Gaza by air.
