NITZANA, Israel-Egypt border — Airdropping aid packages from planes, U.S. military and NGO boats working independently to deliver aid by sea, and now the U.N. food agency has finally managed to get aid in by land. Multiple international efforts are afoot to bring desperately needed food, medicine and other supplies to Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip, but significant hurdles and danger to those on the ground remain.
An Israeli strike on a food distribution center in Gaza killed a staff member of the United Nations' Palestinian relief agency, UNRWA, and injured another 22 people, the agency said Wednesday.
