Israel lets aid into Gaza after 11-week blockade but UN calls it 'drop in ocean'
GAZA — Israel says it has allowed five UN lorries carrying humanitarian aid, including baby food, into the Gaza Strip after 11 weeks of blockade.The UN's humanitarian chief welcomed the move but stressed it was only "a drop in the ocean of what is urgently needed" by the 2.1 million Palestinians in the war-torn territory, where global experts are warning of a looming famine.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his decision to temporarily let in a "minimal" amount of food followed pressure from allies in the US Senate."We must not reach a situation of famine, both from a practical and a diplomatic standpoint," he stressed in a video in response to criticism of the move in Israel.Netanyahu said food deliveries would continue only until the Israeli...
