Over 400 tons of food have left Cyprus aboard a three-ship convoy in another shipment of food to Gaza, and they are hoping to help in Gaza's worsening food crisis. Famine is increasing in the region, especially in some of the hardest-hit areas in the north, where Israel's original counterattack was launched. The World Central Kitchen sent about 200 tons of food earlier this year as the first aid shipment by sea, and this second round has now been sent after the success of the first. This convoy is carrying enough food to feed one meal to about one million people, which seems like a lot, but it barely makes a dent in the crisis. Trucks are much more efficient than air or sea deliveries, but Israel continues to block the border despite an order from the International Court of Justice to open up more roadways into Gaza. Famine is on the way, and it could arrive as quickly as mid-April if measures are not taken to feed Palestinians in Gaza. Almost 33,000 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's invasion of Palestine, and humanitarian officials are worried that number could rapidly rise if more food is not delivered into Gaza.
