Khan Younis, June 29 (RHC)-- The situation of hunger in Gaza is dire, and many Palestinians in northern Gaza are reportedly eating extract of leaves.  And Palestinian activist and journalist Mansour Shouman says the situation in Gaza is getting worse.

“In the north there is famine right now.  I had a friend text me saying: "We are eating the extract of the leaves of the trees just in order to provide us with nutrients." 

Shouman, who is reporting from Khan Younis, told Al Jazeera: “All they have up north is flour that is coming in through the very little residual aid that has been left off the American pier that is coming through land crossing points in the north.”

Shouman called for the land crossings to open as quickly as possible to allow the thousands of trucks full of aid from people who donated to organisations worldwide to enter.

Mansour Shouman, a Palestinian-Canadian journalist, has been a steadfast voice from the heart of Gaza since October 7th.  Despite being offered the opportunity to leave by both Israeli and Canadian authorities, Mansour chose to remain in Khan Younis, dedicated to providing daily, on-the-ground reports in English, showcasing the realities of life amidst conflict.
