4. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Asma Al-Jabari, displaced Palestinian woman:
"Our food situation is extremely difficult. I'm pregnant and there is absolutely no food. We haven't received any aid, it's been four months since we last got a food package. I have two children and often can't find them anything to eat for breakfast, and sometimes they go to bed without dinner."
5. Various of pot, cups, spoon
6. Various of displaced people
7. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Um Mohamoud, displaced Palestinian woman:
"We haven't received any aid. My sons can't reach the airdropped supplies. One of them lost his leg at the American aid distribution point in Rafah, and the other was became paralyzed due to bombing. Only God can help us. We've heard about the aid, but we haven't received anything."
8. Various of tents, displaced people
9. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Mohammad Al-louh, displaced Palestinian man:
"The World Food Programme (WFP) used to distribute aid properly, we would at least get flour once every month or two. Now, we can't get flour either from the airdrops or from the truck convoys in Zikim, because whoever goes there risks being shot at by the Israelis or the truck would run him over just to get aids box or a bag of flour."

As hunger grips the Gaza Strip, displaced Palestinians face deadly risks in their desperate search for food.
With two children to feed and another on the way, Asma Al-Jabari worries how she will survive Gaza's worsening hunger crisis when she gives birth.
"Our food situation is extremely difficult. I'm pregnant and there is absolutely no food. We haven't received any aid, it's been four months since we last got a food package. I have two children and often can't find them anything to eat for breakfast, and sometimes they go to bed without dinner," said Asma.
Asma is not the only one concerned. The majority of the population in the area is also highly concerned that the crisis is not coming to an end, even after Israel allowed dozens of truckloads and air dropping of aid into the territory.
"We haven't received any aid. My sons can't reach the airdropped supplies. One of them lost his leg at the American aid distribution point in Rafah, and the other was became paralyzed due to bombing. Only God can help us. We've heard about the aid, but we haven't received anything," said Um Mohamoud, a displaced Palestinian woman.
On Wednesday, the Israeli army was reportedly shot and killed more than 50 food seekers and injured 300 others near Zikimi flashpoint.
Local estimates indicate that over 1,000 Palestinians searching for food aid in Gaza have been killed in recent months since the establishment of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, an American aid initiative supported by the Israeli government.
"The World Food Programme (WFP) used to distribute aid properly - we would receive flour at least once every month or two. Now, we can't get flour either from airdrops or from the truck convoys in Zikim. Anyone who goes there risks being shot by the Israelis or run over by trucks desperate to grab aid boxes or bags of flour," said Mohammad Al-louh, a displaced Palestinian man.
The international community, including the United Nations, has accused Israel of deliberately targeting Palestinians during aid distribution. Both Israeli authorities and the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation have denied these allegations. However, conditions on the ground indicate a severe breakdown in security and order in these areas.
