Trump warns “people in Gaza are starving” as international condemnation of Israel grows | BBC News

Published

on



President Trump said for the first time today that “a lot of people in Gaza are starving” and vowed that the US would take care of the situation.  He was speaking after finishing a tour of the Middle East, during which he chose not to visit Israel.

Israeli air strikes have killed nearly 100 people in northern Gaza in a single day, according to Hamas-run civil defence teams. It comes after more than 120 Palestinians were killed yesterday in the south of the territory.

The UN is ’warning that half a million people face famine and its human rights chief says that Israel’s actions are tantamount to ethnic cleansing.
 
Palestinians in Beit Lahia and Jabalia described a large-scale assault on the ground and from the air and sea in the early hours of the morning. The Israeli military said its troops were dismantling what it called terrorist infrastructure.

It’s not clear whether the operation marks the start of the major new offensive promised by Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Israel doesn’t allow independent access to Gaza for international journalists, including the BBC.

James Cunningham hadn’t slept. He’d been up all night “fighting for his life”.

The 27-year-old from Ware in Hertfordshire was trying to save a virtual empire from the brink of destruction – using a keyboard and mouse.

James says he “didn’t expect everything to go wrong”, recalling the explosive conflict that broke out in June 2025. “But it did.”

He’d spent thousands of hours – up to 16 a day – and roughly £6,000 playing EVE Online, a role-playing game played by tens of thousands of people around the world.
