A United States trade court has ruled that President Donald Trump’s global reciprocal tariffs are
in the chaos, and many more were injured.Despite the GHF saying it distributed 8,000 food boxes on Tuesday, amounting to 462,000 meals, Al Jazeera correspondent Hind al-Khourdary said the rations would do little to sustain families for long.
Khoudary described a typical box with 4kg (8.8lb) of flour, a couple of bags of pasta, two cans of fava beans, a pack of tea bags and some biscuits. Other food parcels contained lentils and soup in small quantities.“We have been dying of starvation. We have to feed our children who want to eat. What else can we do?

But fear is not worse than starvation.”Despite her best efforts, by the time Abu Sa’da, the mother of three, made it to Rafah, it was too late.
Abu Sa’da described the experience as deeply humiliating. She was filled with shame and inferiority.“I covered my face with my scarf the whole time. I didn’t want anyone to recognise me going to get a food parcel,” she added.
Still, Abu Sa’da says she would do it again if needed.
