At least three people have died and dozens have been injured in war-ravaged Gaza as thousands of starving Palestinians attempted to get food from a controversial Israeli-United States organisation, laying bare the scale of the catastrophe inflicted on the enclave by Israel’s three-month blockade of aid.
