Donald Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff inspected a food distribution centre in war-torn Gaza today amid an escalating war of words over 'starvation' claims.
The UN has warned that widespread famine is a looming threat in the besieged strip and claims hundreds of Palestinians have been shot while trying to collect aid near distribution sites.
But Israel insists that Gaza is not facing starvation and says Hamas is responsible for the looting of aid.
The US ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, posted on X that he and Witkoff had gone to Gaza 'to learn the truth' about the private aid sites run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which is supported by the United States.
'We received briefings from IDF (the Israeli military) and spoke to folks on the ground. GHF delivers more than one million meals a day, an incredible feat!' Huckabee said.
