The US ambassador to the United Nations has said that Washington is “watching Israel’s actions on the ground” in northern Gaza to make sure it is not following “a policy of starvation there”. Linda Thomas-Greenfield said such a policy “would not just be horrific and unacceptable” but would also have “implications under international and US law”. It follows widespread claims that the Israeli military is deliberately blocking aid deliveries to much of northern Gaza. Israel denies the accusation. The UN’s World Food Programme says a million people there are at risk of going hungry. Israel is preventing journalists from having independent access to Gaza.
